What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to High Friarside. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What we’re called out for in High Friarside
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Chips and dents
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
