DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
uPVC repair at your home in Gotham
We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Our technicians work on doors & door panels, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and people most frequently call us about scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Gotham questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Gotham?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Signs you need uPVC repair in Gotham
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- If travel is included in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Repair or replace in Gotham?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
