Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Meadowbank

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Are there extra charges for Meadowbank?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Meadowbank?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Meadowbank clients choose us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
