UPVC repair for Newbie homes

What a repair can’t fix

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

uPVC repair at your home in Newbie

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our technicians work on conservatory frames, window frames & sills and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and people most frequently call us about burns on sills and chips and dents.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DG12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Newbie clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What affects the price in Newbie

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Newbie

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the price covers travel
