How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

uPVC repair in New Lambton, done in place

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We work on window frames & sills, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and white uPVC, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Your questions about uPVC repair in New Lambton

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in New Lambton.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to New Lambton. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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, and the work is guaranteed.

Signs you need uPVC repair in New Lambton

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.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before you book

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
