Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Common questions in Porthmadog

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you charge for travel?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

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

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Porthmadog

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Porthmadog. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Porthmadog

  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
