UPVC repair for Sturminster Marshall homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sturminster Marshall. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Sturminster Marshall, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Sturminster Marshall: your questions answered

How much does uPVC repair cost in Sturminster Marshall?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you cover Sturminster Marshall?

We do. We send a technician to Sturminster Marshall for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Repairing versus replacing in Sturminster Marshall

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
