Should you replace it?

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Questions from Dovenby
What does uPVC repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
What areas do you cover?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
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.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
