Landlords, agents and businesses in Gilston
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Gilston: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Essex.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Gilston and the rest of Essex. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Gilston?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gilston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Same prices wherever you are
- One visit for most repairs
- We leave the room as we found it

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
