Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

  • Window frames & sills

  • Conservatory frames
  • White uPVC
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC

How we price uPVC repair

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Aldercar, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Aldercar questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you work in Aldercar?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Aldercar from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Aldercar, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
