The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

About our uPVC repair in Bocking
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. If you’re dealing with chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can help, on doors & door panels, window frames & sills and white uPVC alike.

- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bocking
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
For anyone letting property in or around Bocking, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
