uPVC repair in South Hykeham without replacing anything

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our repair technicians work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, white uPVC and doors & door panels, and people most often call us about scratches from ladders and furniture and burns on sills.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

FAQs for South Hykeham

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?

We cover the whole UK, including South Hykeham and the rest of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you work in South Hykeham?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to South Hykeham for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in South Hykeham

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Hykeham

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Hykeham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What affects the price in South Hykeham

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for South Hykeham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How it works

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 clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
