Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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 normally cheaper.
uPVC repair at your home in Wendens Ambo
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Our repair technicians work on doors & door panels, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and the jobs we see most are chips and dents and scratches from ladders and furniture.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Wendens Ambo: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you come to Wendens Ambo?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Wendens Ambo. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wendens Ambo. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
