  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed, with no obligation. What we look at:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Cowey Green

Do you cover villages like Cowey Green?

Of course; we work in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.

Do you work for schools and businesses in Cowey Green?

Yes, and we are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited. Tell us about access and timings for the building.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Cowey Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy. For a rural address like Cowey Green, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the uPVC repair comes with us in one trip.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

For a price in Cowey Green, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door 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. Older homes around Cowey Green may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.

Our uPVC repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Do you need uPVC repair in Cowey Green?

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

Look out for these signs:

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

Landlords with property near Great Bentley station (about 2.9 miles south-east) use us between tenancies, so windows, doors and sills are repaired rather than replaced.
