UPVC repair in Hay Street

uPVC repair in Hay Street, done in place

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Whether it’s holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work, we can normally put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Questions from Hay Street

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SG11 postcode.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hay Street

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hay Street as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
