Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Crackenthorpe, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Signs you need uPVC repair in Crackenthorpe
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Chips and dents
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Crackenthorpe
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
