DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Forder. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise 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.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What else we do in Forder
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Forder use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Repairing versus replacing in Forder
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Generally one visit, start to finish

Questions from Forder
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Are there extra charges for Forder?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
