What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

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.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Braintree

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Braintree questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you cover Braintree?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Braintree and the rest of Essex. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For anyone letting property in or around Braintree, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

DIY kit or professional 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
