Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we handle uPVC repair in Chalk End
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Common call-outs are for scratches from ladders and furniture and burns on sills, on doors & door panels, window frames & sills and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Window frames & sills
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Common questions in Chalk End

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Essex.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
