UPVC repair for Bobbingworth homes

About our uPVC repair in Bobbingworth

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We work on doors & door panels, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and dents and burns on sills.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

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

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

  • Chips and dents

Our hiring checklist

Bobbingworth questions

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Are there extra charges for Bobbingworth?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bobbingworth.

What uPVC repair costs

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Bobbingworth, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 booking.

Materials we work on in Bobbingworth

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bobbingworth

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. 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.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Bobbingworth

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
