Always arriving late

Always arriving late, and sometimes not showing up at all. There were days I'd take work off and be waiting and Dmitri never even came. He would often not respond to my messages or calls, and took 3 months to do a job that he told me would take 1 month. This was all after I had paid for the major costs upfront, so could not switch to a different window installation company. Would not recommend. The product is great, but the time and stress it all took wasn't worth it. Look for someone more reliable

Punctuality is not my game | Quality is!
Windows were in within 3 weeks of the factory releasing them!
Kitchen window was missed by client & myself.
We are not in Europe to have a window made on a days notice I am afraid ( As well as being an interstate factory.
I do supply only to many states with personal delivery & there are alternatives out there for installation if a fast turn-around is required.
It is not my nature to do a rough job, hence the slow proper installation processes/steps are followed to European code.
This should be a 2 or 3* review.
But people either love or hate, what can you do?
I hope all the other lovely reviews make you trust me.
You get quality, respect, politeness, great product pricing & endless support requests over punctuality.

Adelaide, great windows frustrating service

Adelaide, SA. Installer Dmitry. The windows and door are making a huge difference to the noise and temperature of my upstairs bedroom. I could not be happier with how they work and look. The service was a bit frustrating at times, with communication very technical about the job, but lacking the details I needed as a customer to know, such as clear length of time to do job (would tell me he has a job in the morning or a list of things he needed to do, but no indication of how long that would take and assume I could work that out), dates (date but no month) and explanation about the glass and frames coming separately. He also asked for 2 days to install over a weekend then came very late in the day. This pattern continued until I had to be quite firm, as it meant I had a tradie in my house many nights doing a few hours until the evening and driving the neighbours nuts with the constant banging. He could have also communicated about the smell it would leave as he knew I had to sleep in the bedroom. On the final day I asked him to leave the windows open as I'd had to sleep in my child's bedroom the night before and he responded with no problems and I got home to it fully closed. The tile brick ledge under my exterior side of window all fell off, which he fixed, however he fixed with a very unusual method of silicon back on which looks very odd. The windows are fantastic, but be aware that the delivery of your windows will be worked with other jobs, which changed for me multiple times, you'll need to store them in your house until he has time to install, you may be asked to lift them, specify if you physically can't, it is frustrating as he is working your job around others, despite giving a whole weekend moved out as he doesn't come early when he says he will and communication will be frequent and frustrating. But windows are amazing.

This is totally understandable from your point of view Heidi.
The situation that we were in meeting deadlines here & there while trying to please everyone is just not viable in the end.

Excellent responsive service

Dmitry was great. The job we had was for one window only in our building of 499 rooms. We could not even get any other grazier to come and have a look at the broken window. Dmitry came to measure and then had to order the glass and then came again to fit and replace the glass.

Dimitry helped resolve our broken deadlock problem over the phone and sending us the proper replacement.
He was patient and anticipated our issues regarding the task of changing the lock to the new one

Dmitry’s guidance and support were much appreciated

Dmitry provided a high level of personal guidance and follow up support in selecting and then transporting my windows. For some constructive criticism, I did find the website a little busy and hard to navigate for an old fella.

Silver foam gun and penosil spray foam are terrible.

Standard silver guns are terrible. Mine was full of metal shavings. When contacting dmitry he just said “would you have paid extra for a better foam gun though?” Instead of offering to replace and contacting his supplier like a regular seller would do. The insulation foam is also pretty garbage, barely adhered and would roll off the timber sub floor I was trying to insulate. Timber sub floor also Moisture tested perfect so that was not the issue. The adhesion of the product is no good.

Customer service was okay, penosil foam and standard spray gun both garbage. Wish I never wasted my money.

Thank you for your honest contribution & sorry to hear you were unsatisfied at this time.
Reviews like this make a business more legitimate in their overall reviews for whom that question the legality score index & official customer feedback submissions.
This is very important!

If you wanted a spray gun replacement, I would have offered it to you, no worries.
On the foam adhesion side of things.
Foam will not stick on any surface if the surface is not cleaned well & moistened with a mist of water prior application. Also, I have specific adhesive foams available if that was your required intentions.
The Penosil ones are mainly for window & door frame cavity filling.
We specifically offer adhesive PU Foam products if that was your main achievement for your project.
No one else has ever complained about the Penosil foam before. So I do not think this is the issue here. There are other PU foam brands out there that are worse off, can't name for legal reasons - but some tradies know what I am talking about.

Keyed handles for "turn and tilt" windows

Keyed window handles for "turn and tilt" windows are hard to find in Australia.
While searching the internet for mail order suppliers overseas I found uPVC, an Adelaide based company, that had exactly what I needed.
After placing the order I received the window handles much faster than expected within a few days.
Thank you for your prompt service Dmitry

Dimitri is a very helpful guy, great service

Dimitri, was really good, when I placed my order I was not really sure what I wanted, which must have been obvious in my order, because within an hour he had contacted me to clarify what I needed and to reduce the postage cost for me. Excellent service and highly recommended.
