Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door 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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Fornham St Genevieve. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Fornham St Genevieve and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we are called out for in Fornham St Genevieve

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.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before booking

Questions from Fornham St Genevieve

Do you work in Fornham St Genevieve?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Fornham St Genevieve from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
