uPVC repair in Harrowcross without replacing anything
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Whether it’s scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can usually put it right, on window frames & sills, white uPVC and doors & door panels alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame 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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Harrowcross. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
