For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How we handle uPVC repair in Alicehead

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on conservatory frames, window frames & sills and white uPVC, and common reasons people get in touch are damage during building work and burns on sills.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The material

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Alicehead

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover Alicehead?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Alicehead. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

If you are in Alicehead and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
