What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you are in East Saltdean and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlord and trade work in East Saltdean

  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Common questions in East Saltdean

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you come to East Saltdean?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to East Saltdean for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Signs you need uPVC repair in East Saltdean

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

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 leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
