UPVC repair near Strichen

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

uPVC repair in Strichen, done in place

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Common call-outs are for burns on sills and damage during building work, on doors & door panels, conservatory frames and window frames & sills.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Strichen

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills

What affects the price in Strichen

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you’re in Strichen and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Strichen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
