What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most customers in Combe get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Combe questions
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Repairing versus replacing in Combe
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
