FAQs for Walkden

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Repairing versus replacing in Walkden

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Walkden

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
