What else we do in South Norwood
Repairing versus replacing in South Norwood
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Norwood
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
FAQs for South Norwood
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
