Shadwell questions
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you cover Shadwell?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Shadwell and the rest of Leeds. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
About our uPVC repair in Shadwell

The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, 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. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What affects the price in Shadwell
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, 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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we’re called out for in Shadwell
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Signs it’s time to call us include:

- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
Before you book anyone
