How we handle uPVC repair in Tewin

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We work on window frames & sills, white uPVC and doors & door panels, and common reasons people contact us are burns on sills and damage during building work.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Tewin and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

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 leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. 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.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Tewin, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Tewin questions

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

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 there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you cover Tewin?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Tewin and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common problems we fix in Tewin

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:

  • Burns on sills
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
