About our uPVC repair in Drax

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Typical jobs include chips and dents and scratches from ladders and furniture, on white uPVC, window frames & sills and conservatory frames.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What we’re called out for in Drax

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Drax

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Drax included. Travel is included in the price.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What information do you need?

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

How soon can you come?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Drax. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Drax

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

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

Materials we repair

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