What affects the price in Launceston

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Launceston

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Launceston

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

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

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

Before you book anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, 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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A fixed quote before you book

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
