uPVC back door will not lift to lock, can you sort it?

Yes, the multipoint gearbox has gone in nearly every case. We carry the common gearboxes on the van and most repairs across the BB postcodes finish in under an hour.

How much will a uPVC repair cost in Blackburn?

£69 to £159 depending on the part. A handle swap is at the lower end, full multipoint replacement at the upper end.

Door has dropped on its hinges, can you fix that?

Yes, very common on older uPVC doors fitted to extensions on Victorian terraces. We adjust hinges and shim the bottom roller, no replacement parts needed in most cases.

Patio multipoint failed, do you do same day?

Yes if you call before lunchtime. Patio gearboxes are slightly less common but we hold the main brands in stock.

Do I need a brand new door?

Almost never. The frame and panel are usually fine, the gearbox or cylinder is what has actually failed. A replacement door costs thousands, a repair is typically under £150.

Worth upgrading the cylinder while you are here?

Yes, anti-snap 3-star cylinders are sensible. Adds £35 to £55 to the bill and removes the most common forced-entry weakness on uPVC doors.

Is there a guarantee on the work?

Twelve months parts and labour. If the same fault returns inside a year we come back free of charge.
