Excellent Customer Support
My set up for installing VELUX solar blinds and solar open/close motors was a little unusual, so I contacted VELUX a couple of times for help. Both over live chat (a real person, thanks Ian A) and over the phone previously, the help they gave got me sorted first time. Top service.

Velux Gateway not working
We changed WFI supplier which upgraded us to 5g and it caused major problems with our Velux Gateway. Spoke to Mikey and he explained I needed to contact our suppler and remove the 5g. I then contacted Mikey and he talked me through all the steps and made sure everything was working before finishing the call. It was very refreshing be able to speak to someone and not a robot.

Ordering process
The process of discussing my project with Velux, talking through different options, and obtaining information on products, pricing, and installation, has honestly been one of the best customer experiences I've ever had. Lynne Leblanc was fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble, and I felt supported and reassured the entire time.
I've only just placed my order, so fingers crossed the products live up to the standard of the advisory team!

I contacted Velux for advice
I contacted Velux for advice on which window would best suit our needs. I was offered a video meeting with an advisor and it was brilliant. I gave them all the information they needed and was advised the best window for my situation. It was all very simple and the advice was spot on. We now have three Velux windows, one in each of three rooms and we love them.

Extremely disappointed with VELUX after sales support
I have three VELUX skylights installed at the same time around six years ago.
One began leaking in November 2025. It’s a clear case of water ingress — it leaks only when it rains, and stops when the rain stops.
Since reporting the issue, I’ve been stuck in an endless loop of emails where VELUX repeatedly asks for the same information and insists on various “installation checks”. After six years of problem‑free use, the idea that this is an installation fault feels unreasonable, especially as these checks often require climbing onto the roof, something most homeowners can’t safely do.
Despite providing every detail requested (some of them more than once), I’ve now been asked during one of the wettest periods of the year to check for condensation. This contradicts everything I’ve already explained and even contradicts the questions VELUX themselves ask when opening a support case.
These repeated delays and requests are not only frustrating, they are increasing the damage to my property while I wait for meaningful action.
I used to be a strong supporter of VELUX products, but this experience has completely changed my view. By contrast, when I bought another skylight from PermaRoof and had an issue, their support was fast, clear, and genuinely helpful.
Based on my current experience, I would recommend PermaRoof over VELUX.

5* Customer Service from Velux and the technical team
I have had an excellent experience with the customer service and support from Velux. Shaun in particular from the technical team was extremely helpful in diagnosing an issue with my blind that I had bought. On his occasion unfortunately the blind was faulty and after trying the fixes he suggested, a replacement blind was ordered quickly (to add this the first time I have had a fault with a Velux product so rest assured that this doesn't happen often from my experience).
I level of detail in the responses I have received from Velux support have been excellent and extremely prompt in trying to rectify the issue.
