Realistic Home Improvements Limited  Arvostelua 

Professional from start to finish, polite and tidy fitters highly recommended this company.

We had contended with a leaky UPVC conservatory, (roughly 6m x 4.3 m, built with our house c. 2003), for ten years before biting the bullet to replace it. But we wanted something which would be more like a garden room/orangery, but with a solid roof, so hopefully more useable through the year. We approached two companies to quote for a replacement, - a well respected local company and Realistic being not so local. Realistic/Ryan proposed a radical departure from UPVC to Aluminium with triple glazing, for which the local competitor messed us around, and didn't demonstrate the same creative thinking, so we ultimately went with Ryan's proposal. He was much more informative, flexible and proactive in what Realistic offered, and willing to work with us to meet our wishes, rather than dictate how it will be.
Going with realistic turned out to be the best decision we ever made. The conservatory remains cool enough in the summer and warm enough in the winter for all year use thanks to the solid roof and triple glazing. Ryan's suggestion to remove the dwarf walls to allow for full height tilt and turn windows, plus a patio door instead of French doors, in summer months makes for us feeling like we are in the garden, and the garden is indoors with us. We couldn't wish for a better arrangement.
No thanks to us, the start of work was delayed until August 2024, but completed by December, and we are VERY, VERY HAPPY with the end result. 5/5 stars

We contacted this company with a project that we had been told might not be possible, when we spoke with Ryan he said he would look into it and get back to us, what we wanted was an extension with an 8 metre span of bifold doors with glass above giving a clear view of the garden, on top of this we wanted a vaulted ceiling with not supports showing. When he came back he said he could get us close to what we wanted, with the compromise of having a centre column and two 4 metre bi folds.
They started in February and the whole thing only took 8 weeks, and that was because of the weather. Great staff and very helpful. We now have our lovely extension and would recommend to anyone. Many thanks to Ryan, Jenny and the team.

From my initial enquiry to final payment after the work was completed, Realistic Home Improvements were efficient, prompt and well priced. We were really pleased with the job they did (sliding patio door and back door replacement).

We had our large sea facing windows replaced by Realistic Home Improvements Limited and the ones fitted have made such a difference , great product and lovely team.

After some research of local window and door replacement companies we selected Realistic Home Improvements and found them to be superb in quoting, removal and replacement of our bungalow windows and back door. The triple glazed units have made an improvement in our carbon footprint as we no longer need to use the central heating. Minor snags were quickly resolved by Ryan and the team who work for him, who were polite and cleaned up as they went along. Well done to Realistic for providing a great window and door replacement experience.

In the autumn of 2022 we wanted to replace seven dilapidated wooden windows and two doors at our house and contacted four suppliers, two well-known national companies and two smaller local firms, including Realistic, for a quote. Realistic responded quickly with a visit to understand our requirements and explain the options available to us. They provided a competitive quote, which we accepted, based largely on a recommendation from my parents, who had been very pleased with a conservatory that Realistic had installed a couple of years previously.
The installation of the windows and doors in March 2023 was efficient, to a good standard and our house was left clean and tidy. There was a slight delay finishing one of the doors as the supplier sent the wrong side panel, but Realisitc resolved this without any fuss.
We’ve had a few minor faults occur since the installation. The front door started rubbing against the frame after a few months. We contacted Realistic and they adjusted the door hinges within a few days. At the end of July 2023, during a storm, we had water leaking in through the vent of one of the windows. This was investigated and resolved with five days. Most recently, in July 2025, one of the handles on the front door had started to droop. Again, Realistic sent a new pair of handles through, again within a few days.
Since we first contacted Realistic in October 2022, they have continued to provide us excellent service and good value for money, and we are pleased that we chose them to install our replacement windows and doors.

From the time we enquired about reroofing our oĺd glass conservatory to completion, we had great service from Ryan and his team. The time keeping, communication and work ethics of everyone was first class. We decided to have the whole conservatory replaced in the end, rather than just the roof. We are very pleased with the result. Chris, Mat and John, the fitters, worked very hard every day and left the site clean and tidy. I cannot recommend the Company too highly, and would definitely use them again. Thanks.

I had a warm roof installed on my conservatory by Realistic in March 2024.
I contacted Realistic in January 2024 on the recommendation of a local company who I had previously used.
I have left this review for 16 months before writing as I had previously had a longstanding problem with my existing glass roof from another installer and I wanted to be certain that the new warm roof had resolved my issues, which it has.
After discussing options with Ryan he gave me enough confidence that a warm roof upgrade installed by Realistic would solve my legacy problems and provide a greatly improved all year round living space. Well the answer to this is yes it has and we now love our conservatory and spend many hours a day in it all year round and it looks great both inside and out. Thankyou Realistic.
So back to the installation in March 2024. I couldn't fault it; Chris and Matt and the rest of the installation team were great to work with and very accommodating. It was a pleasure to work with them and they took time to explain the whole process and were very accommodating, courteous and professional.
We did have some teething issues that Jen had sorted in a timely manner and for me good after sales is an important factor.
Thankyou again Realistic for giving us a beautiful functional living space and I would happily recommend them.
