UPVC repair near Jock's Lodge

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Jock's Lodge. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

We don’t add 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.

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

uPVC repair in Jock's Lodge, done in place

Landlord and trade work in Jock's Lodge

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace in Jock's Lodge?

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. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Jock's Lodge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

FAQs for Jock's Lodge

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you work in Jock's Lodge?

We do. We send a technician to Jock's Lodge for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

When to call us in Jock's Lodge

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
