What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Repair or replace in Polmadie?

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
