uPVC repair at your home in Gunthorpe

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We work on window frames & sills, doors & door panels and white uPVC, and people most often call us about holes from removed fittings and alarms and chips and dents.

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.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Questions from Gunthorpe

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are there extra charges for Gunthorpe?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What affects the price in Gunthorpe

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
