WindowWorx
We had a lantern and a set of sliding doors installed at our property in Henley in April this year. The job itself was quite good, all completed in a week, with good communication.However, upon completion of the work we realised the installers had damaged our natural oak floor during installation. We raised this with WindowWorx who sent their General Manager to take a look. He verbally accepted liability and followed this up with an email, again, accepting liability. WindowWorx went ahead and got a quote for the repair work which was £2,500. Following this, the owner of the business asked to come and have a look himself, so we welcomed him in. He immediately started talking about getting the insurance companies involved to figure out whose liability it was, which was odd, as we'd already established this. Needless to say their insurance company sided with their client. They fabricated a story about us damaging the floor ourselves, with no evidence whatsoever. They carried out zero due diligence, they didn't even visit the property, they just palmed us off. We have evidence by way of photographs that the floor was undamaged before they carried out the work, and damaged once completed. We took legal action against WindowWorx (this is their trading name, the limited company is actually First Direct (Kingston) Ltd) at significant cost to us, but again, we were palmed off with the same letter we'd received weeks prior from the insurance company. It was simply too expensive to continue perusing the matter in the courts, so we just had to walk away with a massive loss and a damaged floor. These people are not kind, they're not honest - they are deceitful and they lie. I would avoid them at all cost.
