How do I know if a door fitter near me has the right background for the job?

Look for a local door fitter who can share details about their training or the courses they’ve completed related to door fitting. While formal certificates aren’t essential, asking about their practical experience and approach can give you a clearer picture.

What should I expect from a local door fitter during the job?

A professional door fitter will provide a clear estimate upfront, communicate openly about the work involved, and follow safety and building guidelines. You can expect them to take their time to fit your door properly so it opens and closes smoothly without drafts or squeaks.

Do door fitters near me have insurance?

Yes, it’s important that the person fitting your door carries public liability insurance. This covers any accidental damage or injuries that might happen during the work. Always ask for proof before hiring.

Are door fitters usually experienced in different types of doors?

Many door fitters have worked on a range of doors including wooden, uPVC, composite, and sliding or bi-fold doors. Make sure they’re comfortable with the specific type you need fitted or repaired. You can read customer reviews and view images of past jobs by door fitters near you on MyBuilder

Windows & Doors (uPVC & Metal)- 23 Jul 2021
Accepted quote back in April and gave deposit. Told it would be 7-9 weeks before installation. No communication from them, had to email and call several times before any response. Mid July still no door asked for deposit back due to no communication. Shocking way to run a business. Finally got deposit back today after being told 3 days ago. Please do not use this person.

Joinery & Cabinet Making- 7 Jan 2020
I posted a job on the site which urgently needed completed and I managed to find a readymade item instead of a bespoke item made from a joiner. Steve called me to arrange a conversation about my bespoke item and when I told him the job would not be going ahead he became rude and told me he will be getting charged for being shortlisted. When I proceeded to apologise he disregarded it and became aggressive over the phone which was very unprofessional. Would not recommend dealing with such unprofessionalism.

Windows & Doors (uPVC & Metal)- 4 Feb 2021
Rude and unhelpful, showed interest in the job, hired, gave my tenants number, he never turnt up and blocked my tenants number? I called to ask thinking maybe there was just an issue with her phone, he answered. I asked if he had been to quote said no I’m too busy.... what was the point in showing in interest in the job and never having any intentions to. Then rudely telling me he’s to busy .....

I have been in the glazing and building industry for almost 20 years. In this time I have amassed a wide range of experience ranging from replacement domestic glazing to new build commercial and industrial glazing. I have built houses, extensions, undertaken refurb jobs, fascia, soffits and guttering. There is no job to small or a job I don’t think of as being important as the previous or next.

Windows & Doors (uPVC & Metal)- 2 Jul 2021
Rays communications leading up to the job were great, however, after the install we have 1 window that leaks badly. I have tried to make contact via telephone, text message, email and through my builder but he has decided to no longer communicate. I left messages asking that he just returns to fix the leak. I would not recommend Ray to anyone.

Wayne was very quick in contacting me and very prompt in coming out and pricing up the job but unfortunately things went down hill from there. If you try to contact him he doesn't answer his phone and if you’re lucky any communication you do get is done via text message. He's messed me about for 6 weeks despite me asking him if he still wanted the job as it was urgent due to water getting into a plug socket from the leaking roof. Again by text he said he would be straight on the job as soon as the new roof panel arrived as the first one he ordered was damaged and no he wasn't messing me about. I received the one and only phone call from his partner 6 weeks from the time he first came out saying if I still wanted the job doing he would do it Saturday morning but Saturday morning came and they didn't turn up and once again no contact just straight through to his voice mail when I tried to phone him to see if he was still coming. Having used this site for a number of years I have to say Boston Windows And Doors are by far the worse I have come across and leaving negative reviews is something I really don't like doing but in this case I feel it is very justified as this company has treated me quite bad. To sum it up I would say if you want a job doing try someone else as Boston Windows And Doors are very unreliable and I’m sorry I can't comment on any work done by this company because despite 6 weeks passing by the job never got done.

Bricklaying- 2 Apr 2019
So I can’t put completed as the job isn’t. He’s walked off site because he’s not happy that we have been commenting on his time keeping. Day one which was actually day 2 but the material didn’t arrive until late fair enough. Anyway day 1 half a days work done due to it being too windy. I have texts telling me only thing that would stop him building the wall is the rain. Also have texts saying that he’d be working weekends if he was running behind which didn’t happen. Anyway next day no show as again too windy. Then the weekend and again no show, too windy. Finally we get a weeks work done and all’s looking good. He asked for a payment early and at that rate of progress was only a couple of days early so paid up no problem. That’s when we started to have problems. Basically time keeping shocking and attitude towards clients is appalling. He’s walked off site today still leaving basically 3 walls to build and a number of fence panels to install. I tried explaining exactly what went on but it’s not enough characters. Workmanship is pretty good but unless you’re happy with half a job being completed I wouldn’t touch with a barge pole.
