The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to compare quotes

Your questions about uPVC repair in Charlestown

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Charlestown?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT4 postcode.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Can landlords book you?

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
