Questions from Riverhead
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What else we do in Riverhead
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Riverhead. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Honest limits
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 before you book.

- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Advice
Repair or replace in Riverhead?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
