UPVC repair in Portscatho

Landlord and trade work in Portscatho

If you manage property in Portscatho, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Portscatho use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

uPVC repair in Portscatho without replacing anything

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Whether it’s burns on sills and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can normally put it right, on white uPVC, conservatory frames and doors & door panels alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 booking.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Portscatho, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Portscatho?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
