How we handle uPVC repair in Boxted Cross

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We regularly repair white uPVC, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and common reasons people contact us are holes from removed fittings and alarms and scratches from ladders and furniture.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

FAQs for Boxted Cross

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you cover Boxted Cross?

We do. We send a technician to Boxted Cross for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CO4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Boxted Cross

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

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

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

Before booking anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame 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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
