DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Newtown St Boswells
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
- Doors & door panels

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
