uPVC repair in Old Hutton, 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 regularly repair coloured and woodgrain uPVC, conservatory frames and white uPVC, and the jobs we see most are scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material

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

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most clients in Old Hutton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

See our prices page.

Do you need uPVC repair in Old Hutton?

Look out for any of the following:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How to look after the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
