UPVC repair near West End

uPVC repair in West End without replacing anything

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Common call-outs are for chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms, across window frames & sills, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and white uPVC.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

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

Getting ready for the visit

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our prices page.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including West End. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

West End: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in West End?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you need uPVC repair in West End?

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t 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.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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