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 usually cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

About our uPVC repair in Altnaharra

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Whether it’s burns on sills and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can generally put it right, on conservatory frames, window frames & sills and doors & door panels alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Altnaharra?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Altnaharra

For anyone letting property in or around Altnaharra, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IV27 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
