What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Frames that are warped or out of square

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

uPVC repair at your home in Linnvale

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Whether it’s chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

  • Damage during building work

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire window, door or sill

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Linnvale

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Linnvale: your questions answered

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.
