Reston: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of the Scottish Borders?

Across the UK, so Reston is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Access to the area

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Reston

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

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 to keep costs down.

What we are called out for in Reston

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.

Common reasons people in Reston contact us are:

  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Reston

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Doors & door panels
  • Window frames & sills

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
