DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
About our uPVC repair in Hockenden
We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Whether it’s chips and dents and burns on sills, we can usually put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hockenden as everywhere else we work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Hockenden questions
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Advice
What affects the price in Hockenden
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
