Repairing versus replacing in Brightling

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about uPVC repair in Brightling

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Brightling. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Brightling and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
