Knowle questions

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you work in Knowle?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Knowle from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Knowle. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Knowle

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

The things customers generally mention when they call include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to look after the finish
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Knowle customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our full price list.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
