Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we’re called out for in Glengolly
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
Before booking anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Questions from Glengolly
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your KW14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Failed or misted double glazing units

- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
