Need uPVC repair in Polsloe?

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

About our uPVC repair in Polsloe

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Our repair technicians work on doors & door panels, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and window frames & sills, and people most often call us about chips and dents and burns on sills.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Polsloe: your questions answered

What does uPVC repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Are there extra charges for Polsloe?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Polsloe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Polsloe

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

For a price in Polsloe, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
