DIY kit or professional 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 photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door 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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What affects the price in Howick Cross
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you are in Howick Cross and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Common questions in Howick Cross
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
