How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Woodthorpe. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Woodthorpe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Nottingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
