Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start 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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What affects the price in Chorlton-by-Backford

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

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

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
