How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PA33 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

About our uPVC repair in Ardbrecknish

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Common call-outs are for holes from removed fittings and alarms and chips and dents, across conservatory frames, white uPVC and doors & door panels.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Ardbrecknish and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Common questions in Ardbrecknish

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
