What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Barrowden. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
We do not add 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.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How we handle uPVC repair in Barrowden
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Whether it’s burns on sills and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

FAQs for Barrowden

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
