Repair or replace in Fernilee?
Replacing the frame 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

uPVC repair in Fernilee, done in place
We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Our technicians work on white uPVC, doors & door panels and conservatory frames, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Fernilee and across Derbyshire. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Questions from Fernilee
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fernilee

What we’re called out for in Fernilee
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For a price in Fernilee, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
