Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Questions from Hollins

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Hollins

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hollins use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

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. There is no charge for travel to Hollins. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
