UPVC repair for Saltwood homes

FAQs for Saltwood

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.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The material

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Saltwood

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before booking

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Do you need uPVC repair in Saltwood?

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

Common reasons people in Saltwood contact us include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CT21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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