Need uPVC repair in Unthank?

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Unthank clients choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

uPVC repair in Unthank without replacing anything

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We regularly repair coloured and woodgrain uPVC, doors & door panels and conservatory frames, and common reasons people contact us are burns on sills and damage during building work.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Unthank

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is my repair covered?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire window, door or sill
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Unthank, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Do you need uPVC repair in Unthank?

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Comparing quotes

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who will actually do the work
