How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Downend. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Downend

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace in Downend?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Downend customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For anyone letting property in or around Downend, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Downend

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.
