What a pleasure it has been to deal with a company who gave us a date and stuck to it, made a good job of the installation, supplied good quality windows, cleaned up well after themselves and even put our blinds back up. Excellent communication at all times too. Highly recommended... we are already using them again.

1st Choice Are DEFINTELY our first choice! We originally used 1st Choice in July 2018 when we had our front door replaced. We chose our design on-line and Andy contacted us to give us a price which was very reasonable given the quality of the door that we received. The staff arrived spot on time and installed the door in a day. The thing that amazed us was that we were expecting to have to touch up the plaster around the door and have some decorating done, however, that was not the case - the door was fitted perfectly and when the sealant was applied, there was absolutely no further work required

Purchased a new UPVC door and 2 sections of toughened glazing for a lounge window. Much cheaper than the competitors and did a fantastic job. Will highly recommend getting a price from 1st choice when shopping around.

We had windows and doors fitted off this company around 18month ago, they was fitted to an excellent standard, they were quick and tidy. We recently noticed that the front door wasn't locking as it should and had a bit of a gap in a could of the opening windows. I emailed Andy, and he came out straight away to have a look, he agreed that some settlement had happened. He sent his lads up a few days later to rectify the problems, so all sorted now. I would highly recommend 1st choice frames!!
