How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Questions from Thorney Close
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
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 and your postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
Repairing versus replacing in Thorney Close
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Thorney Close
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
