How we handle uPVC repair in Tholthorpe

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Common call-outs are for scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work, across doors & door panels, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Landlord and trade work in Tholthorpe

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Tholthorpe

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Repairing versus replacing in Tholthorpe

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Tholthorpe

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Tholthorpe questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Tholthorpe included. Travel is included in the price.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
