About our uPVC repair in Ivy Chimneys

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We are often asked to fix holes from removed fittings and alarms and scratches from ladders and furniture, in window frames & sills, doors & door panels and conservatory frames.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ivy Chimneys. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Ivy Chimneys

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ivy Chimneys use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Ivy Chimneys questions

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the 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. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
