Larger Size Velux Configurations

I've been working with an architect to look at retrofitting a large window area into a sloping roof. They recommended Velux but neither option they identified suited my needs. I contacted the Velux Design Service directly and was delighted to learn that they could configure at least two options that would be far more suitable. The Velux team were very knowledgeable and have agreed to update my architect drawings with more suitable (triple) window combinations. All at no cost!

Customer help & support 5*

When faced with the dilemma of a broken cord on my black out blind, I couldn't find any reference on Velux Spares web site, however, after scrolling through google, and YouTube, seemed only a bodged repair could be done, I then phoned Velux Technical, spoke with a very helpful member of staff by the name of Michele, who advised me, I could in fact buy a cord replacement set for £14 + delivery & vat. She also linked me to a How To video. Arrived ahead of scheduled date, and was an easy repair following the video instructions. So nice now a days to get so much customer help and assistance.

Velux after sales service

I had three Velux solar powered windows and blinds fitted at my property a year ago. During some roof maintenance work one of the units failed to open. A quick call to Velux (Susan) and advised to look at 30 second magnet video. Such a simple fix and all sorted. Not only are Velux windows the best on the market but more importantly the after sales service is excellent.

Placing the order for 5 blinds was simple, the bracket kits had to be re-ordered but they appeared a few weeks later. Everything good and Customer Services provided two missing VAT invoices for our ISO audit by return at 17.00 hrs on a Friday evening - that's excellent service and real dedication! - Thank you Velux!

Velux windows and service

The velux window is easy to use and look great. The black out blind is effective at keeping out the sun. The installation was well done with the old window being removed carefully. Although the blind side controller broken slightly after the 3 years warranty, Velux were generous enough to provide a full replacement. Now thats customer service!

After Sales Team

Had a great experience with the After Sales Team, a quick phone call and the Team swung into action. Having moved into a new house with a non operational Velux window the Team quickly identified the issue, forwarded videos and offered advice on a solution. Cannot fault the professional manner with which I was dealt with, nothing seemed to be any bother, the emails and phone calls from Alisdair, Billy and Sue were extremely helpful talking a novice through the whole chain disconnect and motor reset. Thanks again, much appreciated

Thanks to Lucy

Thanks to Lucy, I was able to get a KIG 300 gateway connected to my window without having the original remote control. Following the app instructions is useless because it does not give you an option "CLICK HERE IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE ORIGINAL REMOTE". Then it should walk you through the basic remote set up like Lucy told me. It was a waste of her time and mine. I am grateful to her for stopping me from throwing a chair out of my window but not grateful to Velux for their poor app instructions!
