Repair or replace in Beetham?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, 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 few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Beetham
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Prices and what affects them

- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We smooth the repair.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
