The staff are friendly and helpful. However it does seem to take a long time to deal with customers. I think this in part is due to the computer system they use. They seem to spend a lot of time inputting information. They do carry a good range of stock for Windows doors etc and UPVC guttering

We've used Listers products (windows, doors, fascia and gutter) on recent home improvements. We're delighted with our choice, quality products and friendly helpful staff. Would highly recommend.

I recently purchased Listers Reynaers aluminium lift and slide patio doors and windows for the entire house, and they look absolutely stunning! We went for dual colour, so we had white on the inside of the frames and black on the outside of the frames. The black perfectly goes with the white render on the outside of our home, and the white on the inside of the windows allows us to choose whatever colours we'd like for the bedrooms.

The frames are super slim, which looks really modern. The patio doors are light yet durable, and very smooth to operate. The large glass panes let in tonnes of light, which is exactly what we were looking for. The service we received from Listers was second to none, we were kept updated throughout the whole process on delivery times so we could arrange the fitters around this. Customer service were extremely friendly whenever we had any questions, nothing was too much them, and Wes in particular was brilliant. Couldn't recommend Listers enough, we've had a great experience.

Ive used listers central for many years, the products and service you get are of the very best. The team have a wide range of knowledge and can't help you out enough. Their prices are very competitive and they try their best to beat other companies quotes. DA Windows

Horrible company with horrible people at the top. Don't go near. Dishonest, back stabbing and spiteful. It's such a shame too as they used to be one of the best and always had time for their customers and looked after their staff.

Building a new house adjacent to the village conservation area and next door to a listed building, meant that we had to satisfy the local planning team with windows and doors in keeping. Lister's Residence 9 windows and doors have accomplished this perfectly. We have achieved the look we required of wooden casement windows with no maintenance. All Lister's personnel were very helpful throughout. I fully recommend this company for both quality of products and service.
