For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trebarber use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Trebarber

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Trebarber. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most customers in Trebarber get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common problems we fix in Trebarber

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Burns on sills
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Trebarber

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Trebarber and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
