Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Questions from California
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you come to California?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to California for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Are there extra charges for California?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Landlords, agents and businesses in California
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including California. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in California
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One visit for most repairs
