UPVC repair near Oxenholme

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Oxenholme

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

uPVC repair in Oxenholme, done in place

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We work on conservatory frames, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and common reasons people contact us are chips and dents and damage during building work.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oxenholme

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

Oxenholme: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
