UPVC repair in Silkstone Common

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

uPVC repair in Silkstone Common without replacing anything

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. If you are dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work, we can normally put it right, on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, white uPVC and doors & door panels alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

What affects the price in Silkstone Common

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Silkstone Common, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Do you need uPVC repair in Silkstone Common?

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.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to look after the finish
