Repair or replace in Uppertown?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Questions from Uppertown
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can price the job without visiting.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
