How to compare quotes

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Abberton

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Doors & door panels
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Window frames & sills
  • White uPVC
  • Conservatory frames

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
