How we handle uPVC repair in Awkley
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We are frequently asked to fix chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms, in coloured and woodgrain uPVC, white uPVC and conservatory frames.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

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. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Window frames & sills

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Awkley: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work in Awkley?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Awkley. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
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.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BS32 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can price the job.
