Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Southcote

For anyone letting property in or around Southcote, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents

What affects the price in Southcote

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
