How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Sicklesmere. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IP30 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice
Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sicklesmere. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Sicklesmere
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you cover Sicklesmere?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Sicklesmere from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
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 I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Doors & door panels
