How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

When to call us in Friendly

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Burns on sills
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Friendly. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Friendly, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Friendly

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Friendly and the rest of Calderdale. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you cover Friendly?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Friendly and the rest of Calderdale. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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 before you book.

What we work on

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