How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Landlord and trade work in Fort Matilda
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
