Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 generally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dowsdale use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Dowsdale: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Dowsdale?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Dowsdale

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
