Landlord and trade work in Cheriton Fitzpaine
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
When to call us in Cheriton Fitzpaine
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Cheriton Fitzpaine
