FAQs for Polton

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you come to Polton?

We do. Technicians travel to Polton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Polton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Our hiring checklist

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Polton

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Polton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Should you replace it?

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. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
