- Repairs from £95
- Chips and dents

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
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
For a price in Duke Street, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Common questions in Duke Street
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely 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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Duke Street
For anyone letting property in or around Duke Street, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common problems we fix in Duke Street
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Burns on sills
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who will actually do the work
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
