About our uPVC repair in Dinder

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We are frequently asked to fix holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills, across window frames & sills, conservatory frames and white uPVC.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dinder

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Dinder. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in Dinder get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common questions in Dinder

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Dinder

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

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We don’t 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.
