Motorised Roof Light

We bought our roof light from Roof Maker through our builder back in 2019.
In 2023, the motor became faulty and we after much difficulty we finally got them to send out a new motor which we paid some £600 for. It was not a big enough motor and subsequently was incapable of powering the window open and closed.
We are now unable to even get the window open and despite frequent phone calls to customer service, they will not give us any information that might help us open the window to fix it.
Their customer service is appalling, they might be slightly cheaper than competitive products but trust me, it's not worth the saving!

Dear Lynne, my name is Andy Jones and I am the sales and Marketing Director of Roof Maker, firstly, please let me apologise for the issues that you have experienced to date. It sounds like the issue may be that we are unable to deal with you directly as our contract is with the builder and not yourselves. If you could please send me the full details of your issue including the name of the builder that placed the actual order I will take a look at what can be done and get back to you directly. My email address is andy.jones@roof-maker.co.uk.

Hi Derek, I have checked our CRM system and we do not seem to have any correspondence from you other than a conversation with one of our sales agents on 20th Feb 2021. Please feel free to contact me directly on andy.jones@roof-maker.co.uk however if you have made a mistake I would appreciate you removing your review which in the circumstances feels very unfair. Kind regards Roof Maker

Professional service and great customer care

From first meeting Roof Maker at the Exel exhibition they came across as professional and transparent, listening to my needs and not just trying to sell. The products that I purchased were great quality and manufactured promptly and delivered on time. The pricing was good value. I was really impressed with the flexibility when modifying my order as my project progressed and this showed that the company cared about the customer.

Two roof lanterns

Ordering the two roof lanterns was straightforward and there were no delays in delivery. Their own driver came on the day as arranged and everything arrived in good condition. The larger roof lantern was put up first and was perfect but when the tradesmen started putting the second one together we realised there was a problem with the size of the hip profiles, they were too long. I immediately telephoned Customer Services. They requested photographs and measurements and these were supplied. It took a few days for them to action replacement parts so almost 2 weeks in total but once we had them it all fitted together. I would have liked to have been contacted during this time to keep me updated, but I kept phoning them to find out what was happening, so communication from them could have been better. I think Customer Services should had put me through to speak directly to someone on the Production Team at the outset because some of the information I supplied to Customer Services failed to reach them which could have resulted in further delays.
Amari Johnson, Operations Support Coordinator, was very helpful in sorting out some final details once the replacement parts arrived and apologised for the error and consequent delay we had experienced.
The roof lanterns transform the entrance hall with the light and height they add and the framework is very low profile which is important because the hallway is quite narrow.

Very poor customer service

Unfortunately, we’ve had a very poor experience with Roof-Maker. They installed a skylight in our bathroom in London during summer 2024, and since then, we’ve experienced repeated technical issues due to failing motor components. Each time, it has taken weeks for them to send an engineer to resolve the problem.

At some point, the skylight became stuck wide open, leaving our flat exposed to rain. This was a clear emergency. Yet, after spending two days trying to reach costumer service, we were told that no one could attend before two weeks. The reason is always the same: “We’re based in Leicester and cannot come to London at short notice.” Why sell and install products in London if you’re unable to provide timely support when urgent issues arise?

Eventually someone came to unblock the skylight. But more than a year after the installation, our rain sensor is still not working and we are still waiting for technical support.

Given the number of technical failures and the consistently poor response, we would strongly advise others against purchasing from Roof-Maker.

Avoid, buy a Velux.

Very poor company to deal with in terms of after sales customer service.

We reached out to them 9 days ago when we found two units had a blown seal and were misting up. We keep getting advised that someone will get back to us, but nobody ever does; having read other reviews on here, this seems to be a pattern.

They advertise on their website that the units come with a 20yr warranty.

Beware, the warranty says you will have to buy the replacement units first and pay delivery, and then remove the faulty units (which are glued in with tubes of sealant) at your cost and hope you do not damage them further whilst taking them out, and send them for inspection before they will refund you.

I am a builder, I will no longer be recommending this company, just go with Velux.

Leebaan provided great support

Leebaan was so helpful from the first call. Once the rooflights were ordered he continued to help and provide support to my delivery queries. An all round 5 star service.

Great service!

Joanna has been so helpful on our most recent order with Roofmaker and we have been so pleased with our experience in the past. Communication was prompt and clear and the whole order was handled smoothly from start to finish.

Excellent Company to work with!!

Placed an order for two 4m x 1.7m Orangery Canopies at the Homebuilding and Renovating Show last year after looking at probably six other manufacturers exhibiting at the show. Certainly Roof Maker were streets ahead of all the others in the show. Got a really good deal at the show and just about to fit the two Canopies during our extension build. All through the ordering process both Paresh Mistry, Business Manager and Abbs Jamal, Sales Agent have given excellent and really helpful advice and assistance. Now really looking forward to receiving the Canopies which Roof Maker are going to fit for us. Roof Maker seem to be an excellent Company with knowledgeable staff and, I must say, probably the best quality product on the market today, and that is after considerable research of products available.

First impressions Roofmaker

First impressions, A great product and from an initial sales perspective they were helpful and prompt.
Two Luxlite roof lights with integrated blinds were duly ordered, received and fitted.
Since fitting we have nothing but issues and over a year later we have roof lights where the blinds have never worked.
Despite several attempts at speaking to them directly from both myself and our electricians, they have been useless.
Your requests will be past from pillar to post with no follow ups or detailed feedback provided from videos we have sent in. Again, zero response.
I would not recommend this company and we are now in position where we cannot control the light in bedroom spaces.
This is a premium product, with a premium cost and the after sales service should simply be much better.
This review is provided from an architectural and interiors studio and we cannot recommend Roofmaker to any others.
