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 keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Catchgate. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

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.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Catchgate

  • White uPVC
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Conservatory frames
  • Window frames & sills
  • Doors & door panels

  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
