Moorhouse questions

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Moorhouse included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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 photos.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When to call us in Moorhouse

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

Before you book anyone

  • How to care for the finish
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Moorhouse

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

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
