Your questions about uPVC repair in Ide Hill
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
We cover the whole UK, including Ide Hill and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
What affects the price in Ide Hill
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Get a quote
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What else we do in Ide Hill
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, 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 usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
