DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
uPVC repair in Brownhill without replacing anything
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you are dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work, we can help, whatever the material.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brownhill use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
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. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Brownhill
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Brownhill?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you work in Brownhill?
We do. We send a technician to Brownhill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
