For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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 photos.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Questions from Ringmer
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you cover the entire of East Sussex?
Across the UK, so Ringmer is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Repair or replace in Ringmer?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
