I initially asked Spectrum Glazing to replace some Velux windows in my property, which they did in a very timely and professional manner. I was so impressed with them that I subsequently contracted them to build a sizeable ‘Hup’ extension on the house, and also to replace all the remaining windows. The team have been first rate throughout; extremely courteous and respectful of the property and I have been kept fully informed of progress throughout. All work carried has been out on time and on budget and I am very pleased indeed with the results. I have no hesitation in highly recommending.

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Detailed reviews
Good positive experience with this local business. From first contact Richard was professional without being pushy and always came back to us, we choose him on his experience, knowledge and being a local company liked the fact we could visit the showroom. The contractors Phil & Paul are really decent fellas and went above and beyond. With our property being a period home they used wood wherever possible and the finish was outstanding. If you are in the Tendering/Colchester area I wouldn’t recommend going elsewhere for your windows.

Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 9 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.
