For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Trent, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Trent. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Questions from Trent
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Trent included. Travel is included in the price.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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
- Window frames & sills
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace in Trent?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
