When to call us in Eggbuckland

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

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

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Eggbuckland

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Eggbuckland as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Eggbuckland. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PL6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Repair or replace in Eggbuckland?

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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
