Trusted uPVC repair in Islip

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

About our uPVC repair in Islip

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you are dealing with chips and dents and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Islip as everywhere else we work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Islip as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Islip

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

Repairing versus replacing in Islip

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Islip. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
