Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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

Repair or replace in Piccotts End?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  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

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
