When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Questions from Brough

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you cover Brough?

We do. Technicians travel to Brough from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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.

When to call us in Brough

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Brough

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Read our prices page.

What affects the price in Brough

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Brough. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire window, door or sill
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
