For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cross use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Cross. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cross. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Cross
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Doors & door panels
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- White uPVC
