Need uPVC repair in Bickershaw?

What affects the price in Bickershaw

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

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. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

uPVC repair in Bickershaw without replacing anything

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. If you are dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills, we can help.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Damage during building work

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your WN2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

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. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bickershaw. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
