Trusted uPVC repair in Oak Tree

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we handle uPVC repair in Oak Tree

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Common call-outs are for scratches from ladders and furniture and chips and dents, in window frames & sills, doors & door panels and conservatory frames.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Questions from Oak Tree

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you come to Oak Tree?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Oak Tree. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What happens next?

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

What we’re called out for in Oak Tree

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oak Tree

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oak Tree as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Oak Tree

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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