uPVC repair in Atherton without replacing anything
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Whether it’s damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can usually put it right, on white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and window frames & sills alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

- We clean the frame or panel.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Atherton, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
FAQs for Atherton
Do you cover the whole of Wigan?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you need uPVC repair in Atherton?
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Atherton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
