uPVC repair in Wakes Colne without replacing anything
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, conservatory frames and white uPVC, and common reasons people contact us are burns on sills and scratches from ladders and furniture.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Wakes Colne
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CO6 postcode.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Wakes Colne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
What affects the price in Wakes Colne
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Wakes Colne, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
