Repair or replace: which is better?

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 usually the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Do you need uPVC repair in Wharton?

The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Wharton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
