UPVC repair in Sunderland

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

uPVC repair at your home in Sunderland

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Common call-outs are for scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms, in white uPVC, doors & door panels and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When to call us in Sunderland

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sunderland as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Questions from Sunderland

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SR3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
