UPVC repair in Altarnun

How we handle uPVC repair in Altarnun

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Common call-outs are for scratches from ladders and furniture and chips and dents, across coloured and woodgrain uPVC, window frames & sills and doors & door panels.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Related advice

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Details of any past repairs

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Do you need uPVC repair in Altarnun?

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Comparing quotes

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Altarnun

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Altarnun?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is it messy?

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

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Landlord and trade work in Altarnun

Letting agents often send us pictures 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.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
