UPVC repair near Elmesthorpe

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

uPVC repair in Elmesthorpe, done in place

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. If you’re dealing with chips and dents and damage during building work, we can generally put it right, on white uPVC, doors & door panels and window frames & sills alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire window, door or sill
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Elmesthorpe get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common questions in Elmesthorpe

Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?

The entire UK, including all of Leicestershire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is my repair covered?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
