Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.

Should you replace it?

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. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What affects the price in Rakewood

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Rakewood, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Rakewood

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Are there extra charges for Rakewood?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Does someone need to be in?

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