Embo: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Embo?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IV25 postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are there extra charges for Embo?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We work on white uPVC, doors & door panels and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and common reasons people get in touch are burns on sills and damage during building work.

Other services in Embo
Landlord and trade work in Embo
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
Most clients in Embo get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we’re called out for in Embo
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
Before you book anyone
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
