About our uPVC repair in Smithies

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you’re dealing with burns on sills and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can help.

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. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Repair or replace in Smithies?

Replacing the frame 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. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Take a look at our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Smithies. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Smithies

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Choosing a repair company

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
