UPVC repair near Calenick

About our uPVC repair in Calenick

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We regularly repair window frames & sills, conservatory frames and white uPVC, and common reasons people contact us are holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

Repairing versus replacing in Calenick

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Related advice

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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