uPVC repair at your home in Riverside
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Common call-outs are for scratches from ladders and furniture and burns on sills, in doors & door panels, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Riverside
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
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.
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Riverside. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
FAQs for Riverside
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Jobs in NR1, NR2 and NR3 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. We regularly work on streets such as Alan Road, Rose Lane and Ella Road. You will find Riverside on the A147, so it’s easy for us to reach.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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 happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
