Landlords, agents and businesses in Millhayes

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

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 you will get a fixed figure back.

What affects the price in Millhayes

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EX15 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Millhayes

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

What we’re called out for in Millhayes

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Millhayes

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
