- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Shipley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill

- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice
Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

FAQs for Shipley
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover the whole of West Sussex?
We cover the entire UK, including Shipley and the rest of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
