The Green: your questions answered
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes The Green. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

- Window frames & sills

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
