UPVC repair for Slack homes

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Slack, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

How we handle uPVC repair in Slack

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you’re dealing with scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can help.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Slack. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
