Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lydd
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

What we’re called out for in Lydd
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

- Chips and dents

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. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square

- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
Common questions in Lydd
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are there extra charges for Lydd?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work in Lydd?
We do. We send a technician to Lydd for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
