UPVC repair for Thwaite homes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Thwaite. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How we handle uPVC repair in Thwaite

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We’re often asked to fix burns on sills and damage during building work, across doors & door panels, window frames & sills and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.

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

Before and after: a chipped white edge filled and refinished

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common questions in Thwaite

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Thwaite and the rest of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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 you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
