We regularly repair white uPVC, doors & door panels and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and the jobs we see most are damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

What else we do in Northlea
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Northlea
- Doors & door panels

FAQs for Northlea
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you work in Northlea?
We do. We send a technician to Northlea for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Northlea is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Northlea
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
