Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  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

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Your questions about uPVC repair in Ilford

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Ilford.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

What do you need from me?

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

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Do I need to be at home?

What does uPVC repair cost?

What happens next?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Ilford. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ilford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Repairing versus replacing in Ilford

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
