How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
When to call us in Angel
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
Before you book anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
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 frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Common questions in Angel
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Angel?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually 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
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
