  • Burns on sills
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work

Knighton: your questions answered

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do I have to be there?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What affects the price in Knighton

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can give you a fixed quote.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repair or replace in Knighton?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Knighton

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site

Landlord and trade work in Knighton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Knighton

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