uPVC repair in Semer without replacing anything
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We regularly repair doors & door panels, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and white uPVC, and people most often call us about burns on sills and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

What affects the price in Semer
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures 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.
Repairing versus replacing in Semer
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
