UPVC repair in Dimmer

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dimmer. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Dimmer, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dimmer

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Dimmer clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Questions from Dimmer

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Are there extra charges for Dimmer?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
