What affects the price in Caerau

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Questions from Caerau

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Caerau. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
