uPVC repair in Northstowe without replacing anything
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. If you’re dealing with scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work, we can usually put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Northstowe questions
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you work in Northstowe?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Northstowe from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Northstowe and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
