UPVC repair in Sauchen

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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 usually the cheaper route.

How we handle uPVC repair in Sauchen

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Whether it’s scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Questions from Sauchen

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
