UPVC repair near Hitcham

How we handle uPVC repair in Hitcham

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Typical jobs include scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work, across white uPVC, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Honest limits

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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • White uPVC
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Doors & door panels
  • Conservatory frames
  • Window frames & sills

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Hitcham

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

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

Before you book anyone

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
