UPVC repair in Sherford

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

uPVC repair in Sherford, done in place

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Our repair technicians work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, conservatory frames and window frames & sills, and people most frequently call us about holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Sherford and across Devon. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Landlord and trade work in Sherford

For anyone letting property in or around Sherford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Sherford questions

Are there extra charges for Sherford?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

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

Materials we work on in Sherford

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

Repair or replace in Sherford?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
