UPVC repair for Shottlegate homes

How we handle uPVC repair in Shottlegate

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and doors & door panels, and common reasons people contact us are holes from removed fittings and alarms and chips and dents.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Shottlegate. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Shottlegate, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we’re called out for in Shottlegate

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.

  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before you book

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 will not last.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

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