DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Dowsby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

What affects the price in Dowsby

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What we are called out for in Dowsby

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

Common reasons people in Dowsby contact us include:

  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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.

Dowsby: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

What does uPVC repair cost?
