How we handle uPVC repair in Mercaston

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We are frequently asked to fix chips and dents and scratches from ladders and furniture, across coloured and woodgrain uPVC, window frames & sills and conservatory frames.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Common questions in Mercaston

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Mercaston is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll 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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Mercaston

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

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

Signs you need uPVC repair in Mercaston

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.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mercaston as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What uPVC repair costs

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Mercaston, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
