How we handle uPVC repair in Shelf

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We regularly repair coloured and woodgrain uPVC, window frames & sills and doors & door panels, and people most frequently call us about burns on sills and damage during building work.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos

See our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Calderdale and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

FAQs for Shelf

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Shelf?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your HX3 postcode.

When to call us in Shelf

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Doors & door panels
  • Conservatory frames
  • Window frames & sills
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • White uPVC

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Shelf. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
