Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Millbrook

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Millbrook use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Millbrook, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Related advice

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Millbrook, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

FAQs for Millbrook

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do you cover the whole of Tameside?

All of Tameside, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
