DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Knob's Crook
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Knob's Crook
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Knob's Crook included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
