UPVC repair near Camb

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

How we handle uPVC repair in Camb

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Whether it’s burns on sills and damage during building work, we can generally put it right, on doors & door panels, conservatory frames and window frames & sills alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Do you need uPVC repair in Camb?

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Camb questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Are you accredited?

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

Are there extra charges for Camb?

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

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Camb

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Camb as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Should you replace it?

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. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
