uPVC repair in Shildon without replacing anything
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Our repair technicians work on window frames & sills, doors & door panels and conservatory frames, and people most often call us about damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colour mixed on the day to match

How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Shildon, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Get a quote
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 over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common questions in Shildon
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across County Durham.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you come to Shildon?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Shildon. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
