What affects the price in Upper Loads

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can give you a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Upper Loads?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

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

Can landlords book you?

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
