UPVC repair for Hare Street homes

About our uPVC repair in Hare Street

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We are frequently asked to fix damage during building work and scratches from ladders and furniture, on white uPVC, doors & door panels and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hare Street

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Hare Street, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

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’ll reply with a fixed price.

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

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

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Hare Street: your questions answered

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can you do it?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Are there extra charges for Hare Street?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it messy?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
