How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Runcton. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Sussex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Runcton

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

Common questions in Runcton

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do I have to be there?

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

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you need uPVC repair in Runcton?

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Before booking anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame 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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Runcton

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our full price list.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
