Hobson questions

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you cover Hobson?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hobson for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Hobson?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you cover the entire of Gateshead?

All of Gateshead, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A fixed quote before booking

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

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

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hobson use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Can I fix it myself?

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we’re called out for in Hobson

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
