Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
