Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise 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.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Should you replace it?
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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Shangton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Shangton questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Shangton?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
