Thorpe Astley: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Thorpe Astley?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are there extra charges for Thorpe Astley?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price

What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
Repairing versus replacing in Thorpe Astley
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Thorpe Astley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
