uPVC repair at your home in Penelewey
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We are frequently asked to fix scratches from ladders and furniture and chips and dents, on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, conservatory frames and doors & door panels.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Work for landlords and builders
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.
For anyone letting property in or around Penelewey, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Penelewey. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Related advice
Penelewey: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are there extra charges for Penelewey?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Signs you need uPVC repair in Penelewey
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
Comparing quotes
- How changes to the job are handled
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Penelewey. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
