uPVC repair in Pen Tranch, done in place

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Typical jobs include scratches from ladders and furniture and chips and dents, in white uPVC, window frames & sills and doors & door panels.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Pen Tranch, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Pen Tranch

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
