uPVC repair in Thornham, done in place

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We’re frequently asked to fix holes from removed fittings and alarms and chips and dents, in conservatory frames, white uPVC and window frames & sills.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thornham

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What affects the price in Thornham

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

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.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

When to call us in Thornham

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Thornham

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

Your questions about uPVC repair in Thornham

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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.
