What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

uPVC repair in Orton without replacing anything
We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. If you’re dealing with damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can normally put it right, on window frames & sills, white uPVC and doors & door panels alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Orton questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Orton?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Orton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Orton, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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 normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace in Orton?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. 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 we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Orton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
