Alconbury: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
All of Cambridgeshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Alconbury.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Alconbury
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace in Alconbury?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
