Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
