Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Common questions in Thornton Watlass

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Thornton Watlass?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we work on in Thornton Watlass

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
