DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NP12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repairing versus replacing in Gwrhay
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
