Your questions about uPVC repair in Alt Hill
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work in Alt Hill?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Alt Hill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
