Our hiring checklist

How we handle uPVC repair in Elford

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our technicians work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, window frames & sills and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are damage during building work and scratches from ladders and furniture.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Elford

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
