How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Five Ashes questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Five Ashes?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you cover the whole of East Sussex?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Five Ashes. Prices do not change with location.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Five Ashes, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Do you need uPVC repair in Five Ashes?
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Common reasons people in Five Ashes contact us are:
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- What preparation is included
- Who turns up on the day
Repairing versus replacing in Five Ashes
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
