DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Longtown, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
When to call us in Longtown
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
Before you book anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How changes to the job are handled
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
