Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Questions from Tycroes
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do you work in Tycroes?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Tycroes for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Tycroes included. Travel is included in the price.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What affects the price in Tycroes
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
