How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What affects the price in Walworth Gate

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most customers in Walworth Gate get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
