What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairing versus replacing in Thwaites

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Thwaites. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No need to remove anything

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Thwaites questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What we can’t put right

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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