Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Chilton Lane. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Chips and dents

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
