DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
The Pludds questions
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your GL17 postcode.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
What affects the price in The Pludds
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to The Pludds. The price depends on:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Repair or replace: which is better?
