How we handle uPVC repair in Potternewton
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We regularly repair white uPVC, doors & door panels and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and the jobs we see most are scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What we can’t put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Window frames & sills
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. 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 jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix 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 to keep costs down.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Advice
Common questions in Potternewton
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Are there extra charges for Potternewton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Potternewton?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LS7 postcode.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
