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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How we handle uPVC repair in Metal Bridge
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you’re dealing with scratches from ladders and furniture and chips and dents, we can typically put it right.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What affects the price in Metal Bridge
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Metal Bridge: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover the entire of County Durham?
Everywhere in the UK, Metal Bridge included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common problems we fix in Metal Bridge
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Metal Bridge as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
