UPVC repair for Mackerel's Common homes

uPVC repair in Mackerel's Common, done in place

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Common call-outs are for burns on sills and chips and dents, in coloured and woodgrain uPVC, conservatory frames and doors & door panels.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Mackerel's Common

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Mackerel's Common

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlord and trade work in Mackerel's Common

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Mackerel's Common: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Mackerel's Common. Prices don’t change with location.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area

How we price uPVC repair

  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
