Your questions about uPVC repair in West Melbury
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

When to call us in West Melbury

- Burns on sills

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
- White uPVC
What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for West Melbury. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
