UPVC repair near Lipson

uPVC repair in Lipson without replacing anything

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Questions from Lipson

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is it messy?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

What happens next?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

For a price in Lipson, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around Lipson, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Do you need uPVC repair in Lipson?

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Comparing quotes

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Lipson, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
