For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Arnold use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, 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.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
