UPVC repair in Spondon

uPVC repair in Spondon without replacing anything

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Our technicians work on white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and conservatory frames, and people most often call us about holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DE21 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

  • Colour-matched on site

What we are called out for in Spondon

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Common questions in Spondon

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover Spondon?

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

Do you cover the entire of Derby?

All of Derby, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
