Common questions in Meadowfield
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are there extra charges for Meadowfield?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you need uPVC repair in Meadowfield?
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Common reasons people in Meadowfield contact us are:
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
Before you book anyone
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- How the colour is matched
What affects the price in Meadowfield
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Repairing versus replacing in Meadowfield
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Meadowfield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
