UPVC repair near Alton

What affects the price in Alton

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Alton. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How we handle uPVC repair in Alton

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, window frames & sills and doors & door panels, and people most often call us about burns on sills and chips and dents.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Alton

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

FAQs for Alton

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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