How we handle uPVC repair in Wistow

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you’re dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Wistow

  • Doors & door panels
  • White uPVC

Can I fix it myself?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

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

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LE8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Wistow?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Landlord and trade work in Wistow

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