uPVC repair in Old Eldon, done in place
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We’re often asked to fix burns on sills and holes from removed fittings and alarms, across white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and conservatory frames.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What affects the price in Old Eldon
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
