We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on window frames & sills, doors & door panels and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and people most often call us about chips and dents and damage during building work.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

What a repair can’t fix

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

  • White uPVC

  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

FAQs for Longford

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you work in Longford?

We do. Technicians travel to Longford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

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. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why Longford clients choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before you book

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Longford

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.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Burns on sills
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work
