How uPVC repair works in Leicester
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We regularly repair white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and window frames & sills, and the jobs we see most are chips and dents and scratches from ladders and furniture.
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
What you’ll pay
Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why choose Surface Doctor
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We leave the room as we found it

When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Signs you need uPVC repair
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
What affects the price in Leicester
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Leicester. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Leicester. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
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. A repair keeps the original.
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Leicester: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
