  Windows / Doors / Conservatories

  I don’t think I can recommend

  We are not happy to recommend. We had 10 windows in the house replaced. 6 of them were faulty, not airtight and the design of the frames was at fault with insufficient strength for the weight of the windows. These 6 windows were replaced but the customer service was poor, the office staff were officious and rude. The sales person ran down (was rude) about other local window companies. This should have been a warning , but we were taken in by the sales pitch. The workers and installation staff were excellent, clean, considerate and respectful.

  Response from Realistic Home Improvements Ltd

  We’re sorry this experience was distressing. An issue with window reinforcement was identified and all affected units were replaced. Due to a change in the client’s circumstances, extra site days were arranged to complete the remedial works. The contract price was paid in full after an attempted renegotiation; this was separate from the quality of the completed works. We appreciate the recognition of our installers and will continue improving communication and service.

  Composite Front Doors Installation

  Fantastic quality service from start to finish.

  We recently had a new front door fitted by Realistic Home Improvements Limited, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the very beginning, their team was incredibly thorough in planning the design of the door, taking the time to understand our style preferences and ensuring every detail was just right. When it came to installation, the team was fantastic—friendly, professional, and extremely skilled. They worked efficiently while maintaining a high standard of craftsmanship, leaving everything clean and tidy once the job was done. Our new front door looks amazing and has

  Double Glazing Installation

  Posted 20 July 2025

  Excellent service

  In March 2023 we chose Realistic to replace 7 windows and 2 external doors, based on a competitive quote, friendly service and a recommendation from our family who had previous experience of the firm. The installation was carried out in an efficient manner and to a high standard. Since then, Realistic have continued to offer exceptional service, swiftly resolving a few faults that have developed since the initial installation without any fuss. They have proved themselves to be a reliable company and we are pleased we chose them for the work.

  Conservatory Roof Insulation

  Posted 06 January 2025

  Exceptional in every way

  Ryan, Jen and their team were faultless, from initial consultation to works and follow up we could not have asked for better. The work is completed to a very high standard and looks incredible. We now have a fully usable space instead of one that is too hot or too cold! Thank you to Realistic, would definitely recommend!

  Conservatory Installation

  Conservatory installation

  From my first meeting with Ryan I was impressed with the advice on what I required ad his no hard sell approach. His trades men were first class in there work, polite and clean. They never left a scrape of litter. There were a couple of snags during construction over come without fuss. All in all the end product was more than I expected and suitable for my disability needs. I would highly recommend Realistic especially if you have a disability.
