What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  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

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Barrow Island: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

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 you’ll get one combined price.

Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?

Across the UK, and that includes Barrow Island. Our prices are the same everywhere.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Barrow Island?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Barrow Island

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
