DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

uPVC repair at your home in Knowsthorpe

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Our technicians work on white uPVC, doors & door panels and window frames & sills, and people most often call us about chips and dents and damage during building work.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

FAQs for Knowsthorpe

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover Knowsthorpe?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Knowsthorpe and the rest of Leeds. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LS10 postcode.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Knowsthorpe. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Knowsthorpe, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
