Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Sawmills and the surrounding area
Sawmills is about 3 miles north-west of Ripley, in Derbyshire. Our technicians come to customers in Sawmills, so there is no workshop to go to. Our repair technicians cover all 532 towns and villages in Derbyshire, from the larger towns to small villages. We work right across the region, from Sawmills to Manchester (about 42 miles away).
Here we cover the DE56 postcode area. We also cover the places around Sawmills: Ladygrove (1 mile east), Bullbridge (1 mile north-west), Ridgeway (1 mile south-west), Fritchley (1 mile north-west) and Buckland Hollow (1 mile east).

The nearest railway station is Ambergate station, about 0.9 miles south-west of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Codnor Castle (4.6 miles east) and Strutt's North Mill (2.8 miles south-west). Not far away are Wyver Lane Nature Reserve and Alport Height.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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
- Window frames & sills
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you’re in Sawmills and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we are called out for in Sawmills
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
Before you book anyone
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How to care for the finish
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts 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. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why book with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One visit for most repairs
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Sawmills: your questions answered
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you come to Sawmills?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Sawmills and the rest of Derbyshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
