How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Doors & door panels
  • White uPVC
  • Conservatory frames
  • Window frames & sills

Landlord and trade work in Wych Cross

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy. In a village or hamlet like Wych Cross, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work

Facilities teams at buildings such as Greenfields School can book us for windows and doors too.

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Wych Cross?

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. Replacement in Wych Cross means trades, travel and waste removal, while uPVC repair is one trip.

Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
