uPVC repair in Borstal, done in place

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Our technicians work on window frames & sills, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and white uPVC, and common reasons people contact us are holes from removed fittings and alarms and chips and dents.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Borstal use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

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. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Borstal?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your ME1 postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What areas do you cover?

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

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.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

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

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
