What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Upper Abercanaid, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
