Do you need uPVC repair in Acre?

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage during building work
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BB4 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Acre

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Acre questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you cover Acre?

We do. We send a technician to Acre for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
