Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Caldecote, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Common problems we fix in Caldecote

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Caldecote. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Caldecote

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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the entire UK

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

FAQs for Caldecote

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
