UPVC repair for Appleby Parva homes

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Appleby Parva. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DE12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Appleby Parva

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

What we are called out for in Appleby Parva

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

10 questions to ask before you book

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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 won’t last.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  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

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
