DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Unthank

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Unthank.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Unthank, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Unthank

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents

Before you book anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

  • 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.
