UPVC repair in Arabella

How we handle uPVC repair in Arabella

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work, on conservatory frames, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace in Arabella?

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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Arabella. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Arabella

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

For anyone letting property in or around Arabella, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, 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. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
