What affects the price in Elm

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

If you are in Elm and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

About our uPVC repair in Elm

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 normally cheaper.

Questions from Elm

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Elm.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you work in Elm?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Elm. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How soon can you come?

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
