The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We work on doors & door panels, window frames & sills and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are burns on sills and chips and dents.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Goverseth questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Goverseth?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Goverseth. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need uPVC repair in Goverseth?

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
