UPVC repair for Craigmore homes

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

uPVC repair in Craigmore without replacing anything

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We regularly repair white uPVC, window frames & sills and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and people most often call us about scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Craigmore and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

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.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you are in Craigmore and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

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. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Advice

FAQs for Craigmore

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you work in Craigmore?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Craigmore from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
