The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Damage during building work

Choosing a repair company

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

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.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

FAQs for Merton

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Merton and the rest of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you cover Merton?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Merton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Why repair rather than replace?

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 keeps the original. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
