Report
From start to finish our experience with Wallingford glass was easy, pain-free, and the price was very comfortable. We found and upstairs window with a crack running through it and honestly had no idea what to do. Scott walked us through the whole process of coming out, measuring the window, and letting us know the plan going forward. He later came back when the window was ready and replaced it extremely quickly. They're able to work around your schedule and the service is friendly. Would recommend for any and all home glass needs.

We had some specialist glazing designed for our Listed Building which needed replacing. Wallingford Glass and Glazing were able to quickly identify the issue and propose suitable alternatives which met the requirements of our listing. The part that really stood out for me was the delivery. The same person came and measured, installed, realised there was an issue, took the problem away and then completed the install. He was also super polite and professional. I could not have asked for a better service. Thank you!

Wallingford Glass & Glazing did a great job In replacing several misted panes at our previous house. In our new cottage we had 3 small 4mm glass panes replaced. Although there is a standard charges for this, David kindly reduced the cost for this relatively small job

Very happy with the finished product and the service from David and his team. Not only did they take away all the old windows but they cleaned up after themselves before they left! Very reasonably priced. Would recommend to anyone looking to replace windows.
