Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Mill of Mains. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
