Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

For anyone letting property in or around Charlestown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What affects the price in Charlestown

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 booking.

Materials we repair

  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Conservatory frames
  • White uPVC
  • Doors & door panels
  • Window frames & sills

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
