What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Spennymoor

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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.

Repair or replace in Spennymoor?

A new window, door 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. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Spennymoor. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Spennymoor

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
