Common questions in Dane End
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Do you work in Dane End?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Dane End from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Honest limits

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
- Window frames & sills
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Advice
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 keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
