Your questions about uPVC repair in Norwich Lanes

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Norwich Lanes
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
If you are in Norwich Lanes and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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 you book.
