What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

If you manage property in Longhope, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Common problems we fix in Longhope

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

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Damage during building work
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Questions from Longhope

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

Do you come to Longhope?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Longhope from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

When can you do it?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
