UPVC repair for Longsight homes

uPVC repair in Longsight without replacing anything

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Our technicians work on window frames & sills, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and white uPVC, and people most often call us about holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  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. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Longsight. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
