How we handle uPVC repair in Thorpe Acre

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. If you’re dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can normally put it right, on white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and doors & door panels alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Do you need uPVC repair in Thorpe Acre?

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What affects the price in Thorpe Acre

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE11 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

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 leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Thorpe Acre, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thorpe Acre as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
