The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Magdalene
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Magdalene. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can price the job.

Repairing versus replacing in Magdalene
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
