How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Common questions in Harleston
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you cover Harleston?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Harleston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What we are called out for in Harleston
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
Before you book anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Harleston, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
