uPVC repair in Water without replacing anything
We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Typical jobs include scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work, in doors & door panels, conservatory frames and white uPVC.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price

Your questions about uPVC repair in Water
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Do you come to Water?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Water from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Water. What changes the price is:
- The material
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
