Do you work in Tiln?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tiln. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Tiln, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tiln use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
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. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Tiln. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
