10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

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. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Carlidnack

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our prices page.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What affects the price in Carlidnack

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Carlidnack questions

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover Carlidnack?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Carlidnack. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
