FAQs for Charleston

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Does someone need to be in?

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

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

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Charleston?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DD2 postcode.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame 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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
