UPVC repair near The Lymes

Landlord and trade work in The Lymes

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

uPVC repair at your home in The Lymes

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We are frequently asked to fix chips and dents and damage during building work, on doors & door panels, white uPVC and conservatory frames.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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

Common questions in The Lymes

Are you accredited?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you come to The Lymes?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to The Lymes and the rest of Staffordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your ST5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When to call us in The Lymes

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can price the job without visiting.
