How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
About our uPVC repair in East Donyland
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We regularly repair window frames & sills, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and the jobs we see most are damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Window frames & sills
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
