Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Middlestone Moor

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  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

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Middlestone Moor

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
