How we handle uPVC repair in Howbrook
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We’re often asked to fix scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work, in conservatory frames, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and doors & door panels.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Howbrook questions
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you cover Howbrook?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Howbrook and the rest of Sheffield. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you need uPVC repair in Howbrook?

Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
