Trusted uPVC repair in Cowley

Landlord and trade work in Cowley

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cowley as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How we handle uPVC repair in Cowley

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We regularly repair window frames & sills, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and doors & door panels, and the jobs we see most are damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

FAQs for Cowley

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Do you cover Cowley?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Cowley. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill

Most clients in Cowley get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we work on in Cowley

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

When to call us in Cowley

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

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How to care for the finish
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

See our prices page.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
