How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Upperton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

uPVC repair in Upperton without replacing anything

The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our technicians work on window frames & sills, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and people most frequently call us about chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

When to call us in Upperton

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work
  • Burns on sills
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

FAQs for Upperton

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
