Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

When to call us in Ermine East

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Burns on sills
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Ermine East

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Ermine East: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Ermine East?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

If you manage property in Ermine East, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
