Trusted uPVC repair in Founthill

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

uPVC repair in Founthill, done in place

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. If you are dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and chips and dents, we can usually put it right, on white uPVC, doors & door panels and window frames & sills alike.

In a village like Founthill, homes with uPVC windows and doors sit alongside older properties. Where you have uPVC, we can repair burns, chips and holes in place.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare. Somewhere like Founthill needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the uPVC repair comes with us in one trip.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Founthill

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BN8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Founthill

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

Landlords with property near Uckfield station (about 3.3 miles east) use us between tenancies, so windows, doors and sills are repaired rather than replaced.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Founthill?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Replacement in Founthill means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
