How we handle uPVC repair in Distington

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. If you are dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work, we can generally put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Repair or replace in Distington?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Distington. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

If you are in Distington and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Distington

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Distington questions

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work in Distington?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Distington. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Distington.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
