What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What else we do in Pen-dre
Pen-dre questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Pen-dre?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LL36 postcode.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Pen-dre
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
