Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Typical jobs include burns on sills and chips and dents, across doors & door panels, white uPVC and conservatory frames.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Rotten Row, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, 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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Conservatory frames
  • Doors & door panels
  • Window frames & sills
  • White uPVC

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rotten Row. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when 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. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

10 questions to ask before booking

Rotten Row questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Solihull.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What areas do you cover?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
