uPVC repair in Boddam, done in place

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our technicians work on conservatory frames, doors & door panels and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and people most often call us about burns on sills and scratches from ladders and furniture.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Common questions in Boddam

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do you cover Boddam?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Boddam from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Common problems we fix in Boddam

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

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

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How your room will be protected

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Boddam. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you’re in Boddam and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why Boddam customers choose us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • 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, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
