UPVC repair near Southwick

How the visit 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 tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Whether it’s burns on sills and damage during building work, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Southwick

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Southwick: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you cover Southwick?

We do. We send a technician to Southwick for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you accredited?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Southwick

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

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.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • The material, if you know it

If you are in Southwick and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Southwick as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
