How we handle uPVC repair in Houghton
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We are often asked to fix chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms, across white uPVC, conservatory frames and window frames & sills.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Houghton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Houghton. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Houghton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
