What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Matching Green. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we work on in Matching Green

  • Conservatory frames
  • White uPVC
  • Window frames & sills
  • Doors & door panels
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

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 keeps the original. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Matching Green

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price
