Longhoughton questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What areas do you cover?
All of Northumberland, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do you work in Longhoughton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Longhoughton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Window frames & sills
- Conservatory frames
What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Longhoughton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Northumberland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we are called out for in Longhoughton
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Other services in Longhoughton
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. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
