Stella the superstar …
Having contacted the company regarding my 15 year old roof lantern I enquired about the replacement of spare parts. I spoke to Stella who was extremely helpful polite and efficient in locating the now obsolete parts. To my surprise she found some! I received a message from Stella saying the parts would be delivered the next day from enquiry to delivery 6 days. I can highly recommend this company for their outstanding service and many thanks to Stella your a legend🌟

Failure to respond to calls and emails
Update 16/6/25 - Regarding the below issue I’m pleased to be able to update that within 24hrs of posting I was contacted directly by the MD Kishnan Bhogaita who immediately took charge of the issue, apologised profusely over what happened and we’ve been able to arrange a service visit to assess and resolve the problem on 2nd July.
It’s important to reflect when things go well as it is when they don’t and Krishnans personal response to my problem has been fantastic and restored my faith in Roof Maker. 🤞 that the issue is finally resolved after the engineer visit. Thank you Kishnan.
2/6/25 - We had a large electric roof light installed in October 2023 and when failed to open in December 2024 our installer contacted roof maker and eventually in January 2025 they sent out engineers to fix the problem and replace one of the chain motors.
At the beginning of April 2025 the same motor failed again and wouldn't open (the roof light lifting slightly on the opposite side before closing again) my installer tried to contact customer services on a number of occasion without any luck or proper response.
I called on the 22nd April and left a message and then emailed on 13th May explaining the situation and included a short video showing the problem, and again on the 28th May with neither email getting any response. I've also called twice today (2nd June) and heard a message saying they can't take my call and to leave a voice mail which I did.
Lastly through Trust Pilot I saw the email of the customer services manager Emma Mackay and have emailed her direct.
So far I have had a very expensive window that has not worked properly for a number of weeks and whilst we've had some lovely weather we've been unable to open it for ventilation in our kitchen.
All I want is for someone to take ownership of this issue at Roof Maker and help us solve the problem... that shouldn't be too much to ask surely..???

Dear CMDS,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, and we're truly sorry to hear about your recent experience. This clearly hasn’t lived up to the high standards of service and product reliability that we aim to deliver.
We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and frustration caused by the repeated issue with your electric rooflight motor, and more importantly, for the lack of timely communication from our side. We completely understand how disappointing it must be to have an investment like this underperform—especially during periods of good weather when ventilation is so important.
Please rest assured, your feedback has been escalated directly to our Managing Director, who is now personally overseeing your case to ensure it’s resolved as quickly as possible. I have requested some details from you regarding your order so that we can investigate what caused the communication breakdown and the recurrence of the motor issue, and we’ll be in touch shortly with a clear resolution plan.
At Roof Maker, we’re committed to providing not just innovative, high-spec rooflight solutions but also dependable aftercare and responsive support—and we’re sorry we fell short here. We value your patience and the opportunity to put things right.
Kind regards

100% recommended.
I also opted for a clearance stock item after initially going down the route of a custom size lantern.
Really happy with the Slimline lantern and I used the money I saved buying one of the discounted stock rooflights to pay for Roof-Maker to install it.
My own builder could have done it but having the manufacturer install it makes more sense to me…you get extra warranty also.
100% recommended.

Our electrician called Roof Maker and they took all the details and OMG the service was excellent. With in 2 hours Roof maker responded and sorted the issue. Can't fault ROOF MAKER SERVICE AT ALL. In fact if any one wants to come and see the work you are most well come and ask roof maker for my contact.

Great service recovery!
The 1M pyramid skylight arrives with a small scratch. There was no quibble about correcting the fault. The company took the order back and it was re-delivered within a week.
It looks terrific and I would thoroughly recommend this Co.

Inflexible customer service
Great product - but disappointed by the inflexibility through the customer team. We asked to change the colour of the blinds within a week of placing our order and there was no effort to help or understand our position. A 'computer says no' attitude from staff which doesn't match the expensive, high quality product you are investing in.

Dear Sophie,
Thank you for your feedback.
We’re so pleased to hear that you love the product, but we’re truly sorry that your experience with our team didn’t meet your expectations.
We completely understand how frustrating it can be when a requested change can’t be accommodated. As a bespoke manufacturer, we begin production shortly after an order is placed, and while we always do our best to make adjustments where possible, however, changes outside the 24-hour grace period can be difficult to accommodate as we don’t hold stock and work to order. We understand that the team explored a few options with yourself to accommodate the change but as these included an additional cost, you decided to stay with the original order.
That said, we never want a customer to feel unheard, and we appreciate you sharing your experience with us. If there’s anything we can do to help moving forward, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Kind regards

Technical support
The advice, guidance and support given by Roof Maker really are outstanding. Their products are great but, in my case, I had issues because my builder didn’t install correctly. Nonetheless, Roof Maker stepped in and sorted out my issues swiftly - and their technician (Brett) was outstanding: helpful, tidy and efficient. Wish I could give a higher marking than five stars !
