Our hiring checklist

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

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

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Talaton

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Talaton.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Are there extra charges for Talaton?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Does someone need to be in?

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

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Talaton. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, 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.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Talaton

If you manage property in Talaton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
