Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
If you are in Down Hatherley and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlord and trade work in Down Hatherley
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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 before booking.

- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC

When to call us in Down Hatherley
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Look out for these signs:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
Repairing versus replacing in Down Hatherley
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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
