Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
uPVC repair in Little Whelnetham without replacing anything
We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you are dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Little Whelnetham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

What affects the price in Little Whelnetham
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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 will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Doors & door panels
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Little Whelnetham questions
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
