uPVC repair at your home in Spotland

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We work on window frames & sills, white uPVC and conservatory frames, and people most frequently call us about chips and dents and burns on sills.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Advice

Common problems we fix in Spotland

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Look out for these signs:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

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

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Spotland. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Rochdale.

What affects the price in Spotland

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

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

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Spotland use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Rochdale and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
