DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
uPVC repair in Chickney, done in place
The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Whether it’s damage during building work and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Questions from Chickney
Which areas do you work in?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
