uPVC repair in Hawkshead without replacing anything

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. If you are dealing with chips and dents and burns on sills, we can help, on doors & door panels, conservatory frames and window frames & sills alike.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 before you book.

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Your questions about uPVC repair in Hawkshead

What areas do you cover?

All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hawkshead, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hawkshead

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hawkshead use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure 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.
