For landlords and businesses

About our uPVC repair in Alresford

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Our technicians work on white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and conservatory frames, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

What uPVC repair costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

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

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Repair or replace in Alresford?

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Alresford

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you are 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 fails, we can still put it right.
