uPVC repair in Rakeway, done in place
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Typical jobs include damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, across white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and doors & door panels.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Questions from Rakeway
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 generally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
