Your questions about uPVC repair in Smalldale

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Are there extra charges for Smalldale?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.

What affects the price in Smalldale

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Smalldale. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

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

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairing versus replacing in Smalldale

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Smalldale

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
