How we handle uPVC repair in Houghton

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Whether it’s burns on sills and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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

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

FAQs for Houghton

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Houghton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
