uPVC repair in Tinhay without replacing anything

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on doors & door panels, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and the jobs we see most are chips and dents and damage during building work.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Tinhay and everywhere else. 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.

Should you replace it?

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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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

Getting a price from photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t 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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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 photos, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

FAQs for Tinhay

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Tinhay?

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
