About our uPVC repair in Cockden

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our technicians work on doors & door panels, white uPVC and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are burns on sills and damage during building work.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  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

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Take a look at our pricing.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

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

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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 pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in Cockden get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • 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 work on in Cockden

  • Window frames & sills

When to call us in Cockden

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Damage during building work

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Cockden?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
