Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
uPVC repair at your home in Bolam
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. If you’re dealing with scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can typically 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.

Repair or replace in Bolam?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bolam
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bolam use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Bolam. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
If you are in Bolam and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Your questions about uPVC repair in Bolam
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
