How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Questions from Ashcombe

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What affects the price in Ashcombe

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Ashcombe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour-matched on site

Read our pricing.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Ashcombe

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
