Dunham Woodhouses questions

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Dunham Woodhouses.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What does uPVC repair cost?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Dunham Woodhouses. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

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

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What affects the price in Dunham Woodhouses

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

If you’re in Dunham Woodhouses and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
