DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common questions in Sand Hill
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Sand Hill?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work

Repairing versus replacing in Sand Hill
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
