Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.

Repairing versus replacing in Fordington
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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fordington use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Fordington questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Are there extra charges for Fordington?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
