UPVC repair for Alveston homes

uPVC repair in Alveston without replacing anything

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Our repair technicians work on conservatory frames, doors & door panels and white uPVC, and people most frequently call us about damage during building work and chips and dents.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Common questions in Alveston

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Do you cover the whole of South Gloucestershire?

The entire UK, including all of South Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you come to Alveston?

We do. We send a technician to Alveston for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Are you accredited?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Take a look at our full price list.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
