How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Repairing versus replacing in Pickup Bank

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, 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. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Pickup Bank. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Pickup Bank questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are there extra charges for Pickup Bank?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Pickup Bank?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Pickup Bank.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Can I fix it myself?

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pickup Bank. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
