Your questions about uPVC repair in St Athan
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
Most customers in St Athan get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
