You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Common questions in Hafod

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Swansea. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Conservatory frames
  • Doors & door panels

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door 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. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When to call us in Hafod

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hafod, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
