Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Etchingham. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

uPVC repair at your home in Etchingham

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. If you are dealing with burns on sills and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can help, on window frames & sills, doors & door panels and conservatory frames alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Your questions about uPVC repair in Etchingham

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

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.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you come to Etchingham?

We do. We send a technician to Etchingham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Etchingham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Do you need uPVC repair in Etchingham?

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Damage during building work
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Burns on sills
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • White uPVC
  • Window frames & sills
  • Doors & door panels
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Conservatory frames

Repair or replace in Etchingham?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
