Common uPVC window lock problems
Timber windows in Victorian terraces and uPVC windows in newer student and family homes all wear out their locks in the end.
A handle that turns but does not lock, a handle that has snapped, or a window that will not close tight. Most of these come from a worn handle or a failed espagnolette, the locking bar inside the frame.
We replace handles with locking handles where you want them, so windows can be locked with a key, and fix or replace the mechanism behind them. Patio and French door locks are part of the same job.

Window lock repair in Cambridge: common questions
How much is a window lock repair in Cambridge?
From £69 for a uPVC window handle or lock. If the locking mechanism inside the frame has failed, the engineer tells you the price for that before doing it.
Can you fit locking window handles?
Yes. We fit keyed locking handles to uPVC windows, often asked for by insurers and by parents of young children.
Do you charge a callout fee?
No callout fee when you go ahead with the job. If you decide not to go ahead after the engineer has arrived, a £49 assessment fee covers the visit. Otherwise you pay for the job itself in Cambridge, at the price the engineer confirms with you before starting.
My window will not close properly. Can you fix it?
Usually, yes. It is often the hinges or the keeps that need adjusting, which is quicker and cheaper than replacing parts.
How does pricing work?
Tell us the door, the lock and what has happened, and we give you a free quote on the phone. When the engineer arrives, they check the lock and confirm the final price with you before starting any work. Nothing is done without your agreement. A £49 assessment fee applies only if you cancel after the engineer has arrived.
How quickly can someone get to me?
An engineer is typically with you in 15 to 20 minutes, and within 30 minutes at most. We give you a time on the phone based on where the nearest engineer is right now.
I live in a village outside Cambridge. Do you still come out?
Yes. The same 24-hour line covers the whole CB postcode area, including Ely, Newmarket, Saffron Walden, Histon, Cottenham and Waterbeach. Give us your village and street and we will say how soon an engineer can reach you.
Can you re-key a rented house when a tenant moves out?
Yes. We can fit new locks or new cylinders so the old keys stop working, and hand the new keys over on completion. We will confirm who is entitled to authorise the work before starting.
