Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice
Shotley Gate: your questions answered
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you cover Shotley Gate?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Shotley Gate for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shotley Gate use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Common problems we fix in Shotley Gate
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

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 leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
