uPVC repair in Fir Tree without replacing anything

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We regularly repair doors & door panels, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and white uPVC, and the jobs we see most are holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Should I try a DIY kit 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 normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Landlord and trade work in Fir Tree

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

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
