Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
When to call us in Hackenthorpe
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills

Common questions in Hackenthorpe
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hackenthorpe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your S12 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
