How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

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

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Carkeel

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Carkeel?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Can I fix it myself?

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire window, door or sill
  • The material, if you know it

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Carkeel

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Carkeel is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Cornwall.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Doors & door panels
  • Window frames & sills
