UPVC repair near Lawthorn

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

How we handle uPVC repair in Lawthorn

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Whether it’s chips and dents and burns on sills, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lawthorn and across North Ayrshire. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Before and after: a chipped white edge filled and refinished

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs

Questions from Lawthorn

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire window, door or sill
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

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 the same day in most cases.

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. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price
