Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cargo. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- One visit for most repairs
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Common questions in Cargo
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Where we work around Cargo
Cargo is about 3 miles north-west of Carlisle, in Cumbria. Our work suits any type of property, from flats and terraces to detached houses and new builds, plus businesses and rented homes. We work in all 438 towns and villages across Cumbria, from the larger towns to small villages. Our jobs stretch from Cargo to Newcastle upon Tyne (about 54 miles away).
Our technicians cover all of the CA6 postcode area and the streets around it. From Applegarth, Eden Close and Edenside or anywhere nearby, a technician can come to you. We also travel to Etterby (2 miles south-east), Belah (2 miles south-east), Houghton (3 miles east), Tarraby (3 miles east) and Whiteclosegate (3 miles east).

Around Cargo

Further afield, we also cover the area around The Lanes Shopping Centre (3 miles south-east) and A World In Miniature Museum (2.8 miles east). Open spaces near Cargo include Thurstonfield Lough.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Landlord and trade work in Cargo
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- 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. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
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 a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
