Your questions about uPVC repair in New Hunwick

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Do you cover New Hunwick?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to New Hunwick and the rest of County Durham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How soon can you come?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you need uPVC repair in New Hunwick?

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

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How to look after the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door 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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to New Hunwick. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

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

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
