For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Questions from Helmington Row
Do you come to Helmington Row?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Helmington Row for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What affects the price in Helmington Row
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can give you a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One price list for the entire UK

When to call us in Helmington Row
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
