Trusted uPVC repair in Holditch

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What affects the price in Holditch

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Holditch, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Advice

Common questions in Holditch

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What areas do you cover?

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

Are there extra charges for Holditch?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

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 frequently lifts.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Holditch

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Holditch

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
