Dalston questions
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
uPVC repair at your home in Dalston
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, white uPVC and window frames & sills, and people most frequently call us about scratches from ladders and furniture and chips and dents.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Dalston
If you manage property in Dalston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square

Repair or replace in Dalston?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
