Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Window frames & sills
  • Doors & door panels
  • White uPVC
  • Conservatory frames

Should you replace it?

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. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thurmaston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
