The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Thorpe Bay questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
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 will say so.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Repairing versus replacing in Thorpe Bay
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, 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’re paying for.

What affects the price in Thorpe Bay
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t add 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 to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
