Advice

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’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 before booking.

What we work on

  • Doors & door panels
  • Conservatory frames
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • White uPVC
  • Window frames & sills

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Dane Hills. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Dane Hills. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Dane Hills get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

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. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Dane Hills clients choose us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When to call us in Dane Hills

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
