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.

Good work and friendly helpful staff
We wanted to replace a bay window and to have an electric roller garage door installed. We obtained several quotes but accepted the one from Keiron of TGC who visited at a convenient date and time to discuss the job. The quote was competitive and TGC could do both jobs. At no time was we pressured to go ahead. The bay window was installed at a convenient date by John and Aaron. They both were very polite, clean, tidy and kept us informed at each stage. The electric garage door was installed a week later by Louis, Lewis and Ronnie. Louis, the lead fitter and electrician, was very helpful. He suggested an improved route for the outside light cable and proceeded to reroute it to our extreme satisfaction. All three men worked together very well and were polite and friendly. After each job the rubbish was collected by Craig. Our first dealings with TGC have been very satisfactory. The workmanship and communication was very good. We would certainly use this company again and would totally recommend them to anyone looking for a reputable company to do a job.

New Windows
I can’t recommend TGC highly enough. What a fantastic team, they are all polite friendly and highly efficient. No horrible sales tactics like another company that gave me a quote. They were honest and genuine. I had new replacement double glazing upstairs and down and they replaced a pane of glass on my conservatory door which they matched exactly to the other side. I will definitely use them again for any future work.

I really couldn't have asked for more...
This is a family run business where quality and craftsmanship are top of the priority list. I had my entire house weatherboarded and the soffits, guttering and facias replaced. The whole process was a great experience and the transformation of my house is nothing less than outstanding. The attention to detail is superb and the end product shows this. I know when you look on websites you see five stars and don't know whether to trust them, but believe me, these guys are at the top of their game and deserve all the accolades they get. Use them, you won't be disappointed. Please contact me any time with questions or pics.

About this business
How long they've really been tradingThey state they've been established since 2003, but the earliest independent source we can find is 2019. Worth asking them about the gap.

What to check before you hire
Worth checking yourself
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
Be wary of high-pressure 'today-only' discounts and a salesperson who won't leave. A reputable window or door firm gives you a written, itemised quote you can take away and compare against others.
Never pay the full price up front; a modest deposit with the balance on completion is normal. Ask what deposit protection or insurance-backed guarantee you get if the firm stops trading before fitting.
Get the specification in writing (frame material, the glazing units and their energy rating, and any trickle vents) so you can check you got what you paid for.
