Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gwaelod-y-garth use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

uPVC repair in Gwaelod-y-garth without replacing anything

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We work on window frames & sills, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and the jobs we see most are chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

How the visit works

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 morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 generally cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Common questions in Gwaelod-y-garth

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How soon can you come?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?

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. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
