What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Colney Street. Prices do not change with location.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Hertfordshire.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Colney Street use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

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 usually 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Colney Street. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Common problems we fix in Colney Street

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before you book

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 leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Colney Street customers choose us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One visit for most repairs
