Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it

Landlords, agents and businesses in Poltesco
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Poltesco questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Poltesco is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
What affects the price in Poltesco
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
