DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

FAQs for Folly Town

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Window frames & sills
  • Conservatory frames
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Doors & door panels
  • White uPVC

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
