Questions from Isbister
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you come to Isbister?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Isbister from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
