How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

uPVC repair in Shirley without replacing anything

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. If you’re dealing with chips and dents and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Landlord and trade work in Shirley

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Questions from Shirley

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • Frames that are warped or out of square

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
