Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
uPVC repair in Swalwell, done in place
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We regularly repair white uPVC, doors & door panels and window frames & sills, and people most frequently call us about burns on sills and damage during building work.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Do you need uPVC repair in Swalwell?
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Swalwell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Questions from Swalwell
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Swalwell. Prices don’t change with location.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you cover Swalwell?
We do. Technicians travel to Swalwell from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
