uPVC repair in Plantation without replacing anything

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We regularly repair conservatory frames, doors & door panels and window frames & sills, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and dents and scratches from ladders and furniture.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Plantation as everywhere else we work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

When to call us in Plantation

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Plantation?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Take a look at our pricing.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What affects the price in Plantation

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Plantation. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your G51 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
