Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- The material, if you know it
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Waterhead, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
About our uPVC repair in Waterhead
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, white uPVC and doors & door panels, and common reasons people get in touch are damage during building work and burns on sills.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Landlord and trade work in Waterhead
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Waterhead: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are there extra charges for Waterhead?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
Questions to ask before booking

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Before we arrive
