For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What a repair cannot fix
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
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
Repairing versus replacing in Harkstead
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- We leave the room as we found it
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Work done at your home or business

Harkstead: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are there extra charges for Harkstead?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you cover Harkstead?
We do. We send a technician to Harkstead for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Harkstead
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
- Chips and dents
