How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace in Howegreen?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
