uPVC repair in Matching Tye without replacing anything
We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We work on conservatory frames, doors & door panels and white uPVC, and the jobs we see most are chips and dents and burns on sills.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Repair or replace in Matching Tye?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Matching Tye. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Getting ready for the visit

- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What affects the price in Matching Tye
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Matching Tye. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
FAQs for Matching Tye
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Matching Tye and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Matching Tye?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your CM17 postcode.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Window frames & sills
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
