Trusted uPVC repair in Great Canney

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

uPVC repair in Great Canney without replacing anything

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our repair technicians work on conservatory frames, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and window frames & sills, and people most often call us about chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Great Canney

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Great Canney?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Canney

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
