What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Your questions about uPVC repair in Washwood Heath
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- White uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
Landlords, agents and businesses in Washwood Heath
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Birmingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Common problems we fix in Washwood Heath
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace in Washwood Heath?
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. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.
