On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  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. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Your questions about uPVC repair in Dolau

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you come to Dolau?

How much does uPVC repair cost in Dolau?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Dolau.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Landlord and trade work in Dolau

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t 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.

When to call us in Dolau

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Dolau. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
