Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
uPVC repair at your home in Abbott Street
The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Whether it’s burns on sills and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can typically put it right, on doors & door panels, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Abbott Street. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Abbott Street and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Abbott Street
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Abbott Street: your questions answered
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover the whole of Dorset?
The whole UK, including all of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What we’re called out for in Abbott Street
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
Questions to ask before booking
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
