How we handle uPVC repair in Ellington

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, repairing generally 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
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Questions from Ellington
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?
We cover the entire UK, including Ellington and the rest of Northumberland. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Most customers in Ellington get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
