DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we’re called out for in St Ive Cross

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for St Ive Cross. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
