We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Seaham as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace in Seaham?

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Seaham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Seaham

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

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

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Seaham

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

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
