What else we do in Greenside
What affects the price in Greenside
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Greenside. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Greenside
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

- Chips and dents
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Burns on sills

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairing versus replacing in Greenside
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A fixed quote before you book
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Everything repaired in place

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
