How we handle uPVC repair in Bernards Heath

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Whether it’s damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • 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, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When to call us in Bernards Heath

  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Burns on sills

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
