My uPVC door will not lift to lock, can you fix it?

Yes, that is a tired multipoint mechanism nine times out of ten. We carry the common gearboxes on the van and most repairs in Bath finish in under an hour.

How much does a uPVC door repair cost?

Between £69 and £159 depending on what has gone. A handle swap is at the lower end, a full multipoint mechanism replacement at the higher end.

The door has dropped, is that a hinge problem?

Usually, yes. uPVC doors sag over time and the multipoint then catches on the keep. We can adjust the hinges and shim the bottom roller in most cases without replacing parts.

Patio door multipoint failed, can you do same-day?

Yes if you call before lunchtime. Patio multipoints are slightly less common than front-door versions but we stock the main brands and most jobs finish the same day.

Do you replace the whole door or just the mechanism?

Just the mechanism in nearly every case. Replacing a uPVC door is rarely needed, the lock or gearbox is usually the only thing that has actually failed.

Can you upgrade the cylinder while you are there?

Yes, anti-snap 3-star cylinders are a sensible upgrade and we usually have them on the van. Adds £35 to £55 to the job depending on size.

How long has the repair got a guarantee for?

Twelve months on parts and labour. If the same fault comes back inside the year we return free of charge.
