DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Thanington

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thanington use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

The process

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

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 keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
