DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Doors & door panels
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Dorrington, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Dorrington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Dorrington questions
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Dorrington?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SY5 postcode.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
