About our uPVC repair in Hensingham
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Common call-outs are for holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work, across conservatory frames, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and white uPVC.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What affects the price in Hensingham
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hensingham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- White uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Window frames & sills
Signs you need uPVC repair in Hensingham
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
