How it works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Symbister. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
Questions from Symbister
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Symbister included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your ZE2 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
