DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
uPVC repair in Tonge, done in place
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, white uPVC and doors & door panels, and people most frequently call us about chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your M24 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Your questions about uPVC repair in Tonge
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover Tonge?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tonge. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Signs you need uPVC repair in Tonge
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Look out for any of the following:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- How to look after the finish
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price covers travel
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
