What affects the price in Blackness
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Blackness. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Blackness. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do 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 will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Blackness

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Common questions in Blackness
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Also in Blackness
Should you replace it?
A new window, door 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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
