UPVC repair for Burnhope homes

uPVC repair in Burnhope without replacing anything

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We are often asked to fix scratches from ladders and furniture and burns on sills, on white uPVC, window frames & sills and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.

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.

When to call us in Burnhope

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.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burnhope as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. 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.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything

See our prices page.

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
