uPVC repair in Shadingfield without replacing anything
We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Whether it’s holes from removed fittings and alarms and chips and dents, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Shadingfield questions
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Shadingfield
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What affects the price in Shadingfield
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Shadingfield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we are called out for in Shadingfield
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
Before you book anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What preparation is included
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
