uPVC repair in Alvanley without replacing anything

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. If you are dealing with damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can typically put it right, on doors & door panels, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Alvanley questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Alvanley.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Cheshire West and Chester, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Alvanley?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Alvanley

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
