When to call us in Gumley

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

uPVC repair in Gumley, done in place

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Whether it’s holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work, we can generally put it right, on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, window frames & sills and conservatory frames alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Gumley. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Gumley: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gumley

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
