DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not 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.
Materials we repair
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
Questions from Patchetts Green
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Hertfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
