Choosing a repair company

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Window frames & sills
  • Doors & door panels
  • Conservatory frames
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • White uPVC

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leicestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
