Book uPVC repair in Portsmouth

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

uPVC repair at your home in Portsmouth

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Common call-outs are for holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work, on window frames & sills, doors & door panels and conservatory frames.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Portsmouth

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.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damage during building work
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

What your quote should include

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Portsmouth

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Portsmouth. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

FAQs for Portsmouth

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
