About our uPVC repair in North Hylton

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our repair technicians work on conservatory frames, white uPVC and doors & door panels, and people most often call us about holes from removed fittings and alarms and scratches from ladders and furniture.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Hylton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

North Hylton: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, North Hylton included. Travel is included in the price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you work in North Hylton?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to North Hylton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For a price in North Hylton, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
