Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
About our uPVC repair in The Avenues
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. If you are dealing with damage during building work and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can help, on window frames & sills, doors & door panels and white uPVC alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Landlord and trade work in The Avenues
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Hull and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in The Avenues, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Advice
Common questions in The Avenues
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, The Avenues included. Travel is included in the price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are there extra charges for The Avenues?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Common problems we fix in The Avenues
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who turns up on the day
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Repairing versus replacing in The Avenues
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
