Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When to call us in Foston

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

Customers usually contact us about:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Foston

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area

Take a look at our pricing.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

FAQs for Foston

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

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

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE8 postcode.

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.

Landlord and trade work in Foston

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.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill

If you are in Foston and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
