Repair or replace in East Hanningfield?

A new window, door 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for East Hanningfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in East Hanningfield get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
