UPVC repair for Scald End homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How we handle uPVC repair in Scald End

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. If you are dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills, we can help, on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, conservatory frames and window frames & sills alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Common questions in Scald End

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Bedford Borough, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

When to call us in Scald End

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace in Scald End?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  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
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Scald End. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can price the job without visiting.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
