Repairing versus replacing in Idbury

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Idbury

  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Window frames & sills
  • Doors & door panels
  • White uPVC
  • Conservatory frames

When to call us in Idbury

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
