UPVC repair in Dolphinholme

uPVC repair at your home in Dolphinholme

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Whether it’s scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can normally put it right, on conservatory frames, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and white uPVC alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

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

Questions from Dolphinholme

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
