Repair or replace in Ackergillshore?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ackergillshore. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your KW1 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
