Repairing versus replacing in Cotterstock
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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cotterstock. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cotterstock as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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 will give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

FAQs for Cotterstock
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
