Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Appledore
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
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 to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
