UPVC repair near Broughton

uPVC repair in Broughton without replacing anything

Repairing versus replacing in Broughton

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

What we are called out for in Broughton

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

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Most clients in Broughton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
