DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Signs you need uPVC repair in South Chailey
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
