How the visit works

- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fforest Gôch
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Neath Port Talbot and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Fforest Gôch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Do you need uPVC repair in Fforest Gôch?
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Burns on sills
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
