About our uPVC repair in Balfour
We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We’re often asked to fix holes from removed fittings and alarms and scratches from ladders and furniture, on conservatory frames, window frames & sills and white uPVC.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Landlord and trade work in Balfour
If you manage property in Balfour, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Balfour
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. 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.
Balfour: your questions answered
Do you work in Balfour?
We do. Technicians travel to Balfour from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Balfour?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your KW17 postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
