When to call us in Standish

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

  • Damage during building work
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Burns on sills

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, 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.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Standish. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Standish, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Related advice

Standish: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Standish?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work in Standish?

We do. Technicians travel to Standish from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Are there extra charges for Standish?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
