How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What else we do in Affetside
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Do you need uPVC repair in Affetside?
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
What your quote should include

- How to care for the finish
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
