How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
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. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
