UPVC repair for Cheston homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

About our uPVC repair in Cheston

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Common call-outs are for holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills, on doors & door panels, window frames & sills and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Common questions in Cheston

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Signs you need uPVC repair in Cheston

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

What uPVC repair costs

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

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Cheston, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cheston

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around Cheston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
