Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dobcross. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
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 over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Dobcross
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
How quickly can you book me in?
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 pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Dobcross
- Window frames & sills
- Doors & door panels
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- White uPVC
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 typically cheaper.
