DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Questions from Tan-y-lan

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

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

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Tan-y-lan

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What affects the price in Tan-y-lan

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Tan-y-lan. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
