About our uPVC repair in Lintz

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Whether it’s burns on sills and damage during building work, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Repairing versus replacing in Lintz

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. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Do you need uPVC repair in Lintz?

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Lintz

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What affects the price in Lintz

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Are you accredited?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
