Trusted uPVC repair in Great Stretton

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

uPVC repair in Great Stretton without replacing anything

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Whether it’s damage during building work and chips and dents, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

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 clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Stretton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Great Stretton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
