Choosing a repair company

uPVC repair at your home in Stony Heap

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you’re dealing with chips and dents and damage during building work, we can help.

Landlord and trade work in Stony Heap

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stony Heap as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Stony Heap: your questions answered

Do you come to Stony Heap?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stony Heap for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DH8 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
