Landlord and trade work in Woodhatch
For anyone letting property in or around Woodhatch, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in Woodhatch
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Woodhatch. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Woodhatch questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your CM16 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
