Starkholmes: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you work in Starkholmes?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, 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.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Starkholmes

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most customers in Starkholmes get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
