Repairing versus replacing in Stakeford
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stakeford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we handle uPVC repair in Stakeford
We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on window frames & sills, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and common reasons people get in touch are burns on sills and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Common questions in Stakeford
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you’re in Stakeford and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
