UPVC repair for Cold Christmas homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

uPVC repair in Cold Christmas, done in place

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We work on white uPVC, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and people most frequently call us about chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cold Christmas

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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.

Common questions in Cold Christmas

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cold Christmas. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
