DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 normally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PE28 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded 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 if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Hemingford Abbots questions

Is the work guaranteed?

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

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you cover Hemingford Abbots?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hemingford Abbots for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will it make a mess?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Do you need uPVC repair in Hemingford Abbots?

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Common reasons people in Hemingford Abbots contact us are:

  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace in Hemingford Abbots?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
