DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we handle uPVC repair in Croyde

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on window frames & sills, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are burns on sills and chips and dents.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Croyde. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When to call us in Croyde

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common questions in Croyde

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX33 postcode.
