Questions from Thinford
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Thinford and the rest of County Durham. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Thinford
Landlord and trade work in Thinford
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Do you need uPVC repair in Thinford?
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
- How the colour is matched
- How long it needs to cure
What affects the price in Thinford
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Thinford. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repair or replace in Thinford?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
