Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What we’re called out for in Barcombe Cross
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who will actually do the work
- How to care for the finish
- How the colour is matched
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Barcombe Cross
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do I have to be there?
