Widnes questions

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

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

Do you come to Widnes?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Widnes from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Will it make a mess?

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

Common problems we fix in Widnes

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Widnes, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What affects the price in Widnes

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire window, door or sill
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you’re in Widnes and want a price, photos 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Widnes

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
