Questions from Crookgate Bank
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Do you cover Crookgate Bank?
We do. We send a technician to Crookgate Bank for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Crookgate Bank. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we’re called out for in Crookgate Bank
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
Landlords, agents and businesses in Crookgate Bank
For anyone letting property in or around Crookgate Bank, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are 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 a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Repair or replace in Crookgate Bank?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
