What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What else we do in Gilsland
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Gilsland
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Gilsland, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Questions from Gilsland
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you cover Gilsland?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Gilsland and the rest of Cumbria. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?
We cover the entire UK, including Gilsland and the rest of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gilsland. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
