Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Charlton-in-Dover

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

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

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 keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

  • Burns on sills

Choosing a repair company

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
