Restore Performance with Professional Window and Door Repairs

Expert repair services for uPVC and aluminium windows and doors. Secure, efficient and carried out to the highest standards.

Windows and doors are built to last, but over time components can wear out, seals can fail and locks can become stiff or faulty. When problems develop, it does not always mean full replacement is necessary. In many cases, professional repair can restore performance, improve security and extend the lifespan of your existing units.

At Carreg Fawr, we provide specialist window and door repair services for domestic properties. With structured quality processes and experienced technicians, we assess each issue carefully and recommend the most practical solution. Our goal is to restore functionality, improve safety and ensure your windows and doors continue to perform as they should.

If you are experiencing draughts, difficulty locking doors or visible wear, our repair service offers a dependable and cost effective solution.

Common Window and Door Problems We Repair

Over time, regular use and exposure to the elements can affect moving parts and seals. Identifying issues early can prevent further damage and improve long term performance.

Faulty Locks and Handles

Locks and handles are used daily, and internal mechanisms can wear or become misaligned. A stiff key, loose handle or door that fails to lock properly is not only inconvenient but can compromise security.

We inspect locking systems, replace worn components and ensure correct alignment so that windows and doors operate smoothly and securely. Restoring proper locking function improves both safety and ease of use.

Hinges and Alignment Issues

Windows and doors can drop slightly over time due to weight and regular operation. This may cause rubbing against frames, difficulty closing or visible gaps around seals.

Our technicians adjust hinges, realign frames and replace worn hardware where necessary. Correct alignment ensures smooth operation, proper sealing and reduced strain on components, helping to prevent further wear.

Failed or Damaged Seals

Perimeter seals play a vital role in insulation and weather protection. When seals degrade, you may notice draughts, water ingress or increased external noise.

We assess the condition of existing seals and replace them where required. Restoring effective sealing improves thermal performance and helps maintain a comfortable indoor environment throughout the year.

EXAMPLES OF PREVIOUS INSTALLATIONS

Repairing uPVC Windows and Doors

uPVC systems are durable, but they still rely on mechanical components that can require maintenance over time. Professional repair can often restore performance without the need for full replacement.

Addressing Draughts and Heat Loss

If you feel cold air entering around your frames, the issue may relate to worn seals or misalignment. By correcting these faults, we help improve insulation and reduce unnecessary heat loss.

Careful inspection allows us to identify whether adjustments, seal replacement or minor component changes are needed. Restoring the system correctly helps improve comfort and energy efficiency.

Replacing Damaged Hardware

Handles, hinges and locking points can wear with regular use. Replacing these components with compatible parts restores smooth operation and extends the life of your windows and doors.

Using quality replacement parts ensures continued security and reliability. Proper fitting prevents recurring problems and maintains structural integrity.

Restoring Operational Performance

Windows that stick or doors that feel heavy to operate can indicate alignment or hardware issues. Our repair service focuses on restoring correct movement and secure closure.

By addressing operational problems early, homeowners can avoid more extensive damage and maintain reliable day to day use.

Aluminium Window and Door Repairs

Aluminium frames are known for strength and stability, but moving parts and seals can still require attention over time. Professional repair helps maintain long term performance.

Locking System Maintenance

Multi point locking mechanisms in aluminium doors must operate correctly to ensure security. We inspect and replace worn locking components where required, restoring proper engagement and reliable closure.

Correct alignment and adjustment are essential to prevent unnecessary strain on locking systems. Our technicians ensure each component functions as intended.

Track and Roller Adjustments

Sliding doors and bifold systems rely on smooth track and roller mechanisms. If panels feel difficult to move or appear misaligned, adjustment or replacement may be needed.

We carefully inspect rollers and tracks, removing debris and replacing worn parts. Restoring smooth operation ensures safe and effortless use.

Seal and Weatherproofing Repairs

Weather seals can degrade due to age or exposure. Replacing damaged seals improves insulation and helps prevent water ingress.

By maintaining effective sealing, aluminium systems continue to perform reliably and protect your home from the elements.

WORDS FROM HAPPY CUSTOMERS

"This afternoon 2 of your fitters completed a door and window job at my address. I would like to compliment them on their skill, attitude towards their work, thoughtfulness and tidiness. They completed the task with minimum of fuss and delay and the work was to a very high standard. I cannot praise or thank them enough for a job well done. They are two excellent ambassadors for your company and a wise man would look after them. There are not many like them about and after managing in the industry I have seen a few."

“I am writing to thank you for the exceptionally good after-sales care demonstrated by the way in which you and the company have resolved the problem with my bi-fold door. After your visit to replace the locking handle your identification of the cause of the problem allowed me to carry out the remedial action of drilling the tile below the locking bar: Only a very shallow depth of drilling was required. The result is that the door central locking is now working very smoothly, in fact better than it ever has done and I am sure that, as a result, there will be no repeat of the issue with the handle breaking. I am impressed that there was no charge for your visit and that the work was done by way of warranty, even though the door was installed 3 years ago.”

“On behalf of the committee, I want to congratulate you on a job very well done - it looks marvellous! I also enjoyed working with Dean and Mark who were thoroughly professional and clean in their work. It's nice to find people who do not leave us with a mess to clean up. Well done to all.”

“I was sent photos of the new installation whilst in Guernsey and they looked good, but the real thing was even better! I am so very grateful to you for fitting my job into what was, probably, an already busy work schedule. Huge thanks to the two fitters who made a fairly hefty detour to measure up & the other team for coming to fit and complete the job. The new dining area will be up and running for family time here over Christmas thanks to your help. Thank you all so much.”
