About our uPVC repair in Portinscale
The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our technicians work on white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and window frames & sills, and common reasons people get in touch are holes from removed fittings and alarms and chips and dents.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Related advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Portinscale
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Portinscale. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Same prices wherever you are
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
Take a look at our prices page.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Doors & door panels
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
