Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Shefford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you are in Shefford and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We smooth the repair.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit

Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Shefford
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you cover the entire of Central Bedfordshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Shefford and the rest of Central Bedfordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Are there extra charges for Shefford?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
