How we handle uPVC repair in Whimple

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We are often asked to fix holes from removed fittings and alarms and chips and dents, across doors & door panels, white uPVC and window frames & sills.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

When to call us in Whimple

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are 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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Whimple, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whimple use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Whimple, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Repair or replace in Whimple?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, 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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Your questions about uPVC repair in Whimple

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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