Selly Oak questions
How much does uPVC repair cost in Selly Oak?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

We cover the entire UK, including Selly Oak and the rest of Birmingham. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What affects the price in Selly Oak
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Selly Oak, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
