DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairing versus replacing in Dalton-le-Dale
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dalton-le-Dale
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dalton-le-Dale as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit

Common questions in Dalton-le-Dale
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Dalton-le-Dale?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Signs you need uPVC repair in Dalton-le-Dale
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work
- How changes to the job are handled
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Dalton-le-Dale

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
