UPVC repair near Whiteleas

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Whiteleas. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Whiteleas questions

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Do you come to Whiteleas?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Whiteleas and the rest of Sunderland. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Whiteleas

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

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Whiteleas. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire window, door or sill
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
