About our uPVC repair in High Clarence

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. If you are dealing with scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work, we can help, on conservatory frames, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

High Clarence: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you cover High Clarence?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to High Clarence and the rest of Middlesbrough. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Middlesbrough.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around High Clarence, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

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

Advice

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to High Clarence. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
