Written by the company

From small beginnings The UPVC Company is now one of Scotland’s largest window & door installers. Over 20 years ago Jim McGill recognised that companies were charging highly inflated prices for UPVC windows and doors. With a loan from the Prince’s Trust he started to manufacture windows & doors from a small unit in Uddingston and offered Customers a top quality product at realistic prices. The business went from strength to strength and within 5 years moved to bigger premises to meet demand for their products. The UPVC Company now employs over 70 people and all doors & windows are made using some of the latest technology and production techniques in their bespoke factory in Wishaw. The materials used in manufacture are to British Standards or higher and all products are made to the latest safety and security standards and are fully guaranteed for TEN Years. All windows have gas filled energy efficient low E glass & warm-edge spacer to further reduce heat loss saving not only money but also reducing energy usage in the home. As well as windows, over 500 door styles are available and we also have a full range of French, Patio & Bi-fold Doors to give you easy access to your garden so you can take maximum advantage of the spring and summer weather. We cover the Central belt of Scotland and have supplied over 200,000 customers with new windows and/or doors. The company's sales and installation teams are highly trained in identifying the best product for each customers’ needs and making sure that the whole process runs smoothly from start to finish. “We never compromise on quality and part of the service is that customers are not asked to part with a penny until they are completely satisfied. Our after-sales service is also second to none and I offer my personal guarantee that customer satisfaction is given the number one priority in this company.” Says Jim McGill the MD. “I believe in offering top quality at a realistic, fixed price,”

New doors and windows

Friendly staff - start to finish. Everything was fully explained from initial measuring and quote, next steps and installation. Professional, polite and respectful of property when installing. Great job would highly recommend. We have been receiving compliments on how smart the door and windows look.

Overall good service was provided

Overall good service was provided. Only reason I can't give 5 stars is because all the window sills were badly marked during installation. I sent photos but was advised this is normal condition for MDF and that the customer is expected to sand and paint it, which wasn't clear when we ordered it.

Hi Chris,
Thank you for your kind review.
Sorry if Iain our salesman never explained to you that MDF wood comes with a primmer coat of paint and needs painted when fitted.
When our fitters fit the windows they then fit all the internal cills facings and apron to the windows, they then sand the wood to a smooth finish ready for painting. The fitters got fantastic praise for the job they done from your Father in law for a job well done.

Thanks again for the business Chris.

Recently installed windows and a door from this company and everything fitted really well. I'm very happy with the quality, just as I would expect from an established supplier. The process of measuring and ordering via the website was straightforward and simple. Very good value and they all look good and work well too.

Thankyou for fulfilling our order and for a simple transaction and top quality service.

From my original contact with Ian the company has been very professional and willing to assist in helping us achieve the look we wanted for our home. Ian originally came to measure and provide an instant quotation and the company has been very patient as we changed our order several times to meet the changing vision we had. The showroom has a lot of displays available considering it's size and this helped us reach a decision as it's good to see the products up close rather than on a brochure. Our order was sent for manufacture once we had decided on the final look and even the quote still remained reasonable, competitive and less than some other companies I had out to quote. Our order was manufactured quickly to meet a deadline for other work we had booked to be carried out and my doors and windows were installed by Jim, Steph (possibly Colin) and team. The guys all worked efficiently, tirelessly and took great care to keep the place tidy and caused no disruption to us or our neighbours while they were here. Our order for the full house was completed over two days and our old doors, windows and any waste from the install was taken away. The final look is absolutely stunning and I can't thank Ian, Jim, Steph and the full team enough for their patience dealing with us and the care and quality workmanship they provided. I paid for my order in full right away even although some minor works, as you would expect were required shortly after, but they turned up when they said they would and done also what they came to do. The materials used were of high quality and it was great to learn that the glass used is energy efficient which helps keep the heat in and it's also peace of mind to know we have a guarantee. We love our new windows and doors and everytime we clean them they shine up highly with no blemishes or glass bevelled looks like I've seen from other companies. If I ever need windows and doors again I will use the UPVC company and I have already recommended them to family and will continue to do so. If you are looking to replace your windows, doors or both then give this company a chance, especially if you are local as they are really friendly, competitive and provide great after sales support, you won't be dissapointed. Top marks from us for everything, thanks again guys for your assistance, great care taken, quality products and excellent service.

This will be the 5th time I’ve used UPVC company across various properties. From initial contact with Robin to obtain prices, right through to the fitting of the new composite door and making payment, everything was so easy and effortless. Fitters turned up promptly, worked away without fuss, and completed the job efficiently and to a high standard. I’d never hesitate to recommend the company and staff to anyone. Great job done, and I’m a happy customer.

Bought 9 windows and 4 doors 2 .5 years ago had nothing but problems since day one with windows calls and emails and still no joy in getting resolved .Must have had every reason and promise under the sun to not resolve the issues .Been left with windows letting in wind and rain then told it was the trickle vent letting in rain which it does not have them told to put towels town to catch the rain having to keep heavy heavy curtains up and also extra heater on due to cold coming in windows .Would I recommend no now having to do a court order as a last resort for this .Put off doing review as not good for business but now as last promise broke after being told it would be done today that the glass has been deliver all smashed .Have asked for call backs and complaint procedure never receive these calls and having to chase and chase all the time .Now at the stage of having to also get another company to do new windows due to dad workman ship .Hate doing bad reviews but now no other option.Would not have given any stars but had to give 1 to publish .

An amazing company…

An amazing company to go with if you are thinking of getting new windows or doors!!

The salesman put zero pressure on us to sign anything right away and explained everything to us whenever we asked. This was nice as we had pervious companies round and they it felt like they would not leave our house until we signed for a sale, so it was nice that UPVC did not do this. The salesman also helped us pick the perfect designs for the windows and doors and made sure everything was perfect with out order and we were 100% happy with our order by going over it with us face to face before any order was made.

Once we placed the order the salesman kept us updated on everything as our order moved forward. Even when they came round to double check all measurements before ordering the windows the guy was in and out the hiuse very quickly and professionally with minimal disturbance to our day. Once our windows and doors were ready they also made sure that the installation fitted around our schedule and made it easy for us.

The install itself was fantastic, the installers round were very nice and friendly to us all. They went straight to work and from the get go you can tell these men had years of experience in this field as within minutes they had our old windows off and getting it ready for the new windows. They also made sure they were very professional on site and even when we forgot to move items from the area they carefully moved them and informed us after where they were moved so we would know. Took them two days to install five windows and three doors, very professionally with not one flaw to be found (Trust me I looked unwillingly as I have a mild case of OCD 😂). Can honestly say we are very happy with this install, and they made sure to clean up after themself leaving no rubbish behind.

They new windows and doors are amazing and so much better than we can imagine. Also knowing that they are covered for 15 years is even better as it puts our mind at ease if anything was to go wrong with the windows we can get the original company to come and repair.

I would give UPVC Comapny 100/100 as a company. Just want to say a massive than you to the salesman (Ian) for not forcing us and answering all our questions before placing an order and a massive thank you to the installation team for the very professional and fast job they preformed.

Will definitely be recommending UPVC Company to anyone I know who wants new windows or doors.

The fitting team Steph and Colin also very professional, before they start cover all carpets with dust sheets, also they cover outside to protect anything in the garden and when they are finished ,take all the old windows and doors away leaving your home spotless (they even dust down furniture and hoover up 😁) this is all part of the service and as you know Morad we are very competitive on price and don’t ask for a single penny until you are 100% satisfied.

Bought my front door with a 10 year…

Bought my front door with a 10 year guarantee. 6 years having the door which had a few minor problems. Now developed major faults. Windows have condensation inside them and cracks on the plastic. Contacted customer service and advised that these faults are not covered. Asked what is covered in the 10 year guarantee. Advised to send a copy of original receipt to allow them to get the supplier to send me their guarantee. No reply to this email. Sent an email to Mr McGill who says that these problems are not covered. Asked what is covered and no reply. I note on their website that they now offer a 15 year guarantee. I would take this with a pinch of salt! I had someone look at the door who offers 10 year guarantees with his windows and doors and says everything covered by his guarantee and also he has never seen this problem with any of his doors. It requires a replacement front panel.I would think very carefully before choosing this company and their products in light of my experience.

Hi Julie,
Thank you for taking the time to write your review.
We have tried our best to get a new replacement glass panel for your door but the company ( hurst panels)are adamant that the fault with your panel is covered for 5 years.Unfortunately Julie,not everything with your door is covered for 15 years. For example, if your door develops a draught or needs adjusted or not closing properly, these faults are not covered for 15 years ,these particular faults are covered for 5 years.
Before every sale we ask our valuable customers to read and sign our terms and conditions before they go ahead with the sale
As a good will gesture I can replace your glass panel at cost price if that’s an option for you.
Please accept my apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Thanks
