Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Forton
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Forton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Forton
Do you cover the entire of Lancashire?
Everywhere in the UK, Forton included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Repair or replace in Forton?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
