Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Glasshouses questions

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

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.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Doors & door panels
  • Window frames & sills
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • White uPVC
  • Conservatory frames

Repair or replace in Glasshouses?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A fixed quote before you book

What we’re called out for in Glasshouses

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Before booking anyone

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Glasshouses. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
