UPVC repair for Bongate homes

How we handle uPVC repair in Bongate

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Whether it’s scratches from ladders and furniture and chips and dents, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Bongate

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

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

  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

For anyone letting property in or around Bongate, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Repairing versus replacing in Bongate

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

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