uPVC repair in New Zealand, done in place

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on window frames & sills, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and doors & door panels, and the jobs we see most are holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills.

Every job is backed for twelve months in New Zealand and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Our work in New Zealand

New Zealand is about 1 mile north-west of Derby, in Derby. We agree a date that works for you, and we will give you an arrival time in advance, so you’re not left waiting in all day. We cover 31 places across Derby, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Birmingham, about 35 miles away.

We work across DE22 and DE1. Whether you live on Slack Lane, Albany Road and Sims Avenue or a nearby road, a technician can come to you. You will find New Zealand on the A38, which makes it straightforward to reach. We also travel to Markeaton (1 mile north), Littleover (1 mile south), Mackworth (2 miles north-west), Mickleover (3 miles south-west) and Langley Common (3 miles west). Within a short drive, we also cover Oakwood (4 miles north-east), Shelton Lock (4 miles south-east), Spondon (4 miles east), Boulton (4 miles south-east), Allenton (4 miles south-east) and Sinfin (3 miles south). As one of the bigger places in Derby, New Zealand sees plenty of our work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you are in New Zealand and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything

Take a look at our pricing.

What we do, step by step

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 few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

FAQs for New Zealand

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DE22 postcode.
