    Excellent business

    Posted 15 April

    Recently I had a double glazed window which I was unable to open. Having used Duchy recently for another issue I gave them a call to enquire if it was possible to get it open or would I need to purchase a replacement window. They arranged for a very experienced engineer to visit. He was very professional and managed to get the window open and able to fit a new mechanism. Again, I would highly recommend Duchy an excellent company. Thank you.

    Highly recommended

    Posted 14 April

    From start to finish Duchy Ltd made the process of having new windows simple and efficient. We visited the showroom and decided on the type of windows we wanted, the Estimator arrived a few days later and sent us the price of replacing 35 sash windows in UPVC. A few days later the surveyor arrived to undertake the detailed measurements and then within 5 weeks our windows were ready for installation. The two installers were polite, friendly and efficient, making the whole process painless. I would highly recommend Duchy Ltd for new windows and doors as these were replaced a couple of years ag

    Quick, professional and friendly service at a reasonable price

    Posted 07 April

    I had a blown double glazing panel that needed replacing. I found Duchy as they were local. They came and measured the next day, and I had a quote back to me very quickly. Following that my panel was ordered and fitted within about a week. Staff were all friendly and professional and the price was reasonable. Overall I was very pleased with the service and I’ll be a returning customer.

    Excellent product snd service throughout

    Posted 01 April

    We received a fast response to our request for a quote and the estimator, Martyn, was extremely helpful when he visited. He provided us with a clear quote to the exact specification requested and no pressure was applied to push us into making a quick decision. After we ordered a door and paid the deposit, we had a further visit from the surveyor to finalise the measurements and place the order. We were given an approximate fitting date which was adhered to and the installation by Nathan on the day was efficient and problem free with all left tidy. An excellent product and service.

    Full UPVc Replacement

    Posted 26 March

    We would highly recommend this company as their saleperson was only interested in fulfilling our requirements and not pushing for pricier options, add-ons etc. Everyone was very polite and helpful. The surveyor and fitters were prompt and very tidy. The whole process was very easy and trouble free, even when the fitters had an off-centre door panel sent to them from the manufacturer, the correct replacement was quickly organised and fitted.

Duchy Ltd of Callington are proud of their reputation as quality installers & repairers of windows & doors, recognized by multiple repeat clients and customers recommending their friends & family.


This however this is only part of the story, as M.D. Bridget Rosen explains. "All of our fitters are employed & have worked for us for years. They have all recently been awarded NVQ3 qualifications following new laws requiring all fitters to be recognized as competent in their trades.


Most companies settled for the basic NVQ2 qualification but as our fitters had already passed this some years ago we decided to upgrade them all to NVQ3 the higher level"


Duchy Ltd is well known locally for it’s work but what is less well known is the size & quality of the showroom at their Callington premises. Recent upgrades has increased showroom space to some 3000 sq ft with Doors & windows all on display, as well as an impressive display of aluminium bi folds, lift & slide Patio doors for even bigger expanses, French doors & sliding Patio doors in Upvc .


Even more impressive is the new wall of colours displaying some 20 colours & foil finishes now available for windows & doors, plus Composite doors now available in an almost limitless range of colours to brighten up your home. MD. Bridget Rosen commented” most people don’t realize that windows can come in a range of colours and foil finishes. Since we started displaying the choices in the showroom sales of colours have tripled.


So if you would like windows or doors, in White or any one of up to 20 different colours or foil finishes pop along to Duchy Ltd and take a good look.

The showroom is open weekdays only between 7.30am and 4.30pm but closes early on a Friday at 2pm. It’s well worth a visit.
