Trusted uPVC repair in Taxal

uPVC repair at your home in Taxal

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. If you are dealing with burns on sills and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can help, on doors & door panels, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What we are called out for in Taxal

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Taxal questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Are you accredited?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
