UPVC repair for Thistleton homes

uPVC repair in Thistleton, done in place

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Typical jobs include damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, on window frames & sills, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and white uPVC.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

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

What affects the price in Thistleton

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Thistleton. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Thistleton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlord and trade work in Thistleton

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

FAQs for Thistleton

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
