UPVC repair for Hook-a-Gate homes

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Hook-a-Gate. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

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

About our uPVC repair in Hook-a-Gate

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Our repair technicians work on window frames & sills, doors & door panels and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and people most frequently call us about holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d 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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For landlords and businesses

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common questions in Hook-a-Gate

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Do you cover Hook-a-Gate?

We do. Technicians travel to Hook-a-Gate from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

What we’re called out for in Hook-a-Gate

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. 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. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
