Landlord and trade work in St Giles
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Giles use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, 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.
Your questions about uPVC repair in St Giles
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you come to St Giles?
We do. We send a technician to St Giles for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Other services in St Giles
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame 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. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What affects the price in St Giles
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to St Giles. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
Most customers in St Giles get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Signs you need uPVC repair in St Giles
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long it needs to cure
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
