UPVC repair for Hognaston homes

Hognaston: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Do you work in Hognaston?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hognaston. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

uPVC repair in Hognaston without replacing anything

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We work on white uPVC, conservatory frames and doors & door panels, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we are called out for in Hognaston

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Hognaston

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Hognaston. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

Most customers in Hognaston get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Hognaston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
