uPVC Repair for Boars Hill homes
Scratch, chip, burn and hole repairs to uPVC windows, doors and sills in Boars Hill, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we are called out for in Boars Hill
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What prep work is covered
- How your room will be protected
- How the colour is matched
Landlord and trade work in Boars Hill
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
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.

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
