How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Howes. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 won’t last.

Questions from Howes
Do you work in Howes?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Howes. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cambridgeshire.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
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 keeps the original. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- Everything repaired in place
- No extra charge for your area
- One-year guarantee on every repair

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
- Chips and dents

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
