Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Blackhall. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EH4 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Blackhall. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Blackhall

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you cover Blackhall?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Blackhall from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Do you need uPVC repair in Blackhall?

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
