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. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Questions from Thornhills
Can pets and children be at home?

Is the work guaranteed?

What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Thornhills. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you quote from pictures?

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
