Common questions in Tonge
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
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.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What areas do you cover?
All of Bolton, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Tonge?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Common problems we fix in Tonge
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
What your quote should include
- How to look after the finish
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tonge as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Get a quote
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BL2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
