Trusted uPVC repair in Trefechan

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How we handle uPVC repair in Trefechan

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Common call-outs are for scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work, across doors & door panels, conservatory frames and window frames & sills.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Trefechan and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Trefechan

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can price the job.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
