What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Glan-y-pwll. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Glan-y-pwll, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
