UPVC repair in Boot Street

About our uPVC repair in Boot Street

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Whether it’s burns on sills and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Landlord and trade work in Boot Street

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Boot Street use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Boot Street: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Repairing versus replacing in Boot Street

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
