Trusted uPVC repair in Farway

About our uPVC repair in Farway

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We work on doors & door panels, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Farway. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Farway, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How it works

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 clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

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

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace in Farway?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Farway questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you come to Farway?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
