FAQs for West Tanfield
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in West Tanfield.

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for West Tanfield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in West Tanfield, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, 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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
