How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most clients in Great Horkesley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One price list for the whole UK

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlord and trade work in Great Horkesley
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
