UPVC repair near Allwood Green

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 keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Allwood Green questions

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Any details about the material

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Allwood Green, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Allwood Green

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Allwood Green

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
