DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

FAQs for Colney
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Colney
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
