Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Croydon use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
FAQs for Croydon
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you cover Croydon?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Croydon. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

What affects the price in Croydon
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Croydon. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
