UPVC repair in Llanishen

About our uPVC repair in Llanishen

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Typical jobs include scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms, on white uPVC, doors & door panels and window frames & sills.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

What affects the price in Llanishen

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • The material, if you know it

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Llanishen, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Llanishen: your questions answered

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

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

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How do I book?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

When to call us in Llanishen

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

What your quote should include

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Llanishen

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. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Why Llanishen customers choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
