Need uPVC repair in Preston?

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

uPVC repair in Preston without replacing anything

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you’re dealing with scratches from ladders and furniture and chips and dents, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Preston

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

Your questions about uPVC repair in Preston

Which areas do you work in?

All of East Lothian, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Preston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
