Trusted uPVC repair in Tarraby

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tarraby

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

uPVC repair at your home in Tarraby

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Whether it’s chips and dents and burns on sills, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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 normally cheaper.

Common questions in Tarraby

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
