Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Common problems we fix in Ellenabeich
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if they find more damage
- Aftercare advice
What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PA34 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Ellenabeich
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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
