Should you replace it?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What affects the price in Slingsby

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Slingsby. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
