Landlords, agents and businesses in Exbourne

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we handle uPVC repair in Exbourne

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Whether it’s damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can help, on conservatory frames, doors & door panels and white uPVC alike.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Exbourne: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can landlords book you?

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

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

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

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 keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Exbourne

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Take a look at our pricing.

What affects the price in Exbourne

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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 quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Can I fix it myself?

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we’re called out for in Exbourne

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair
