UPVC repair in Greenside

uPVC repair in Greenside without replacing anything

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Our technicians work on window frames & sills, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and people most frequently call us about holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Greenside and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Questions from Greenside

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Greenside?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you come to Greenside?

We do. We send a technician to Greenside for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

10 questions to ask before you book

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
