Flamstead: your questions answered
Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?
All of Hertfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you cover Flamstead?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Flamstead and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Hertfordshire.
uPVC repair at your home in Flamstead
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you are dealing with burns on sills and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Should you replace it?
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. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Flamstead. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
