How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Team Colliery, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Signs you need uPVC repair in Team Colliery
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Look out for these signs:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the price covers travel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Advice
Team Colliery questions
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you cover the entire of Gateshead?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work in Team Colliery?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Team Colliery. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 before booking.
What we work on
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
