DO NOT USE THESE COWBOYS. THEY REPRESENTED PENICUIK AND ST ANDREWS GLASS AND I WOULD/WILL DISCOURAGE ANYONE USING EITHER OF THESE COMPANIES AS A RESULT OF THE SUBSTANDARD WORK "JOB WORTH DOING" ACTUALLY DID. SOME OF THE FAULTS...... WINDOW OPENING THE WRONG WAY.....TWICE. HANDLES TOTALLY DIFFERENT. WINDOW SEALS ALL CURLED ROUND SO THEREFORE NOT SEALING. WINDOW SILLS NOT FLAT IN THE SLIGHTEST AS IN YOU COULD ACTUALLY SEE THEM NOT FLAT FROM 20FT AWAY. 4" EMPRY GAP BETWEEN INTERNAL WINDOW FRAME AND ACTUAL BRICKWORK WITH A BIT OF PLASTIC SURROUND COVERING IT. SUPPOSEDLY THE WINDOWS ARE POLICE APPROVED BUT FROM OUTSIDE YOU CAN SEE ALL OF THE MECHANISM SO HOW THEY CAN BE SAFE I DONT KNOW. ABSOLUTELY ZERO SOUND INSULATION. GENUINELY STAY AWAY FROM THESE MORONS!!!

Don’t use this company. They represented penicuik & all windows installation have had issues from crack & scratches in glass to forgetting the handles. Scratches left on pvc frames inside & outside. 2 windows had to be lifted as not fitted correctly & kitchen window not sealed correctly still waiting on this being rectified. Reported to trading standards as not replying to my emails

I had my windows and doors installed 3 years ago with these cowboys, my heating bill doubled and jobs weren't finished, had to go to citizens advice and fight for 9 months before it all got fixed, i definitely wouldn't recommend these guys they are an absolute disgrace.

They left each room in a dreadful mess, when i asked them to hoover up they said quite cheekliy " can't do that, no hoover " so i called while they were still here, which only made them more angry. Also the exterior on top windows expanding foam, yet to be plastered. Down stairs window is awful, half my brickwork broken off wall and sill, The plasterer came on Mon to view this and i've never seem nor heard of him since.

Order L00829 My honest advice is to keep these cowboys away from your property, Had windows installed first they forgot the front door needs a letterbox a week later letter box installed but water seeps through onto hall floor. the bathroom window has yet to be sealed there is still expanding foam coming out the window frame..Shoddy. shoddy work.

I had windows installed by Penicuik about 3 1/2 years ago and stated on signing the agreement that it would be based on them insuring the conservatory as well as the windows if I took the windows. This was readily agreed. The conservatory state was good but but about 16 yrs old. Couple of years ago it started to leak in one corner. Job (not) Worth Doing said they would fix. They have been several times and tinkered about with this and that, said it was this, then that. I have a complete list of all staff who attended and who said that was it sorted. Still exactly the same!! The manager contacted me today after my last request to repair and said I must now pay for any repairs. IT'S NEVER BEEN F...G REPAIRED in the first place and they now want me to pay for their continued useless work!! PLEASE, save yourself all the hassle and wasting money on an absolutely useless company!!!

I ordered a conservatory in March 2018 and paid a deposit of over £4000 pounds. It is now November, not only is there no sign of my conservatory but they have taken over £4000 from me. Over the months I have made numerous phone calls- all to no avail. Every time I was told that it concerned a different department. When, and if I finally reached one of these departments they all said they would ring back with some information for me - none ever did of course. I have now read the Northwich branch is closed down- very convenient for 'Jobs Worth Doing' but what about their customers such as myself? My only option now is to take legal advice-yet more expense.

After care service is appalling. After having the windows fitted in the summer we are experiencing condensation in between the windows, we cannot get the outside glass clean as it is greasy and smeary. We have rang your company at least 7 times with a promise of a call back, but this never happened. After several emails we were informed 10 days ago that the installation department would contact us within 72 hours. Again we have not heard anything. I would never recommend your company as the after care service is non-existent!!

Gross disregard to health and safety the scaffolding was totally unsafe the contractors erecting it were total animals, broken tiles on the roof a hole on the electric box still not been put right 9months later, the soffit installer left the site untidy screws and debris on the drive I checked the scaffold which was also littered with the same, I had sweep down the scaffold boards and the drive and check all around the house picking up the rubbish, keep well away from this company and zenith the warranty not worth paper there right on, take your money and gone

Well I just want to say that all the bad reviews are only a small proportion of the horror installations and your managers should be ashamed of them selfs! “JOB WORTH DOING” then get some one else!!!!

Appalling attitude and standard of work. the manager takes no responsibility for the damage they have caused to my home. The installation has caused water damage to my home and left holes in the wall. the manager of the Motherwell branch has no concept of customer service or care. Anyone who has had the same experience as me should contact trading standards and their local media with pictures of the damages caused by job worth doing to ensure this does not happen to anyone else.

The work carried out by Job Worth Doing was not done to the specifications on the contract. Customer service was very poor and making any contact with the company was almost impossible. I have been trying to get the work carried out to the agreed specifications and have been let down time and time again. I have been attempting to get the correct frosted glass into a ground floor bathroom window installed for almost a year now and a door has yet to be installed to the correct specifications. They seem to be totally disorganised. The contract for the double glazing windows and a door was agreed by a company called Penicuik. When the men for Job Worth Doing left after installing the wrong window and door, I was assured that the work would be completed to the correct specifications at a time that suited me. My mistake was paying for the work. I have learned that Job Worth doing employees tell lies and can't be trusted. I have tried to phone the manager numerous times and have always got the answer machine. Penicuik has now gone into administration and the people that are now working under the name of Penicuik will not complete the work to the specifications that were agreed on the contract. I don't even think that the company deserves one star but there is not an option for leaving no stars. My advice to anyone considering installing double glazing by Penicuik is steer well clear because Job worth doing can't be trusted to carry out the work to the specifications in the contract.
