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. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Hornestreet questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
