How we handle uPVC repair in Chapelthorpe

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on window frames & sills, doors & door panels and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Chapelthorpe: your questions answered

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you come to Chapelthorpe?

We do. We send a technician to Chapelthorpe for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most customers in Chapelthorpe get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
