What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Filby. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Filby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Other services in Filby
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Filby
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Should you replace it?
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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
