DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 typically the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Common problems we fix in Pleshey

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace in Pleshey?

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 leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our prices page.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Pleshey

Do you cover Pleshey?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Pleshey from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Will the price change on the day?

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Pleshey

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
