Trusted uPVC repair in Sourton

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

How we handle uPVC repair in Sourton

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Our repair technicians work on doors & door panels, window frames & sills and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are burns on sills and damage during building work.

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.

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, 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 clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Sourton

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Sourton

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Sourton: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
