Respray Your uPVC Instead of Replacing It
Yes, the uPVC windows, doors, conservatory frames, fascias and soffits on a Cleckheaton home can be resprayed in a new colour rather than replaced: prices start from £80 a window and £200 a uPVC door, most jobs take 1 to 2 days on site, and because we use Kolorbond-certified coatings every uPVC respray carries a 10-year written guarantee.
Our workshop is in Sheepscar, Leeds, 12 miles (about 19 minutes by road) from Cleckheaton. Of the 9,520 properties around Cleckheaton centre, 33% were built from 1973 onwards and 26% before 1919, which shapes the likely condition of the frames and the colours that suit them.

Type of home
When the homes were built
When homes in Cleckheaton were built, and what that means for the frames
Around Cleckheaton centre, the Valuation Office Agency counts 9,520 properties: 26% built before 1919, 13% between the wars, 28% from 1945 to 1972, 17% from 1973 to 1999 and 17% since 2000. The figure that stands out is the 26% (about 2,440 properties) built before 1919, above the 21% average; houses of that age were built with timber sashes and panelled doors, so any uPVC on them is a later replacement. On those 2,440 older buildings, bright white plastic frames are often the one thing that looks out of place against stone or old brick, so recolouring them in a softer shade makes a bigger difference than it would on a newer house; if yours still has its original timber windows, those need a different coating system and are quoted separately. By contrast, only 13% were built between the wars, against a 16% average, so 1920s and 1930s bay-fronted houses are a smaller part of the local mix than elsewhere.
33% of properties here (about 3,170) were built from 1973 onwards, close to the 36% average, and 38% (about 3,670) predate 1939, so in Cleckheaton you will find both original uPVC on newer houses and replacement frames on older ones; the survey tells us which you have.
Types of home in Cleckheaton, and a worked price
Of the 8,976 households counted around Cleckheaton centre in the 2021 Census, 20% live in detached houses, 37% in semi-detached, 29% in terraced houses and 14% in flats. The largest group is semi-detached houses, about 3,360 households or 37% (average 37%), and at our published rates a semi-detached house with seven windows and two doors would come to roughly £960 to £1,750 before fascias, soffits or a conservatory, with the exact price set after we check frame sizes, condition and access.
No single type dominates: with 58% detached or semi-detached and 42% terraced or flats across 8,976 households, jobs here range from a single front door to a full exterior with roofline and conservatory.
About 7,740 households here (86%) live in houses rather than flats, and many houses with uPVC windows also have a uPVC roofline of fascias, soffits and bargeboards that weathers alongside them; spraying the roofline in the same visit as the frames ties the colour together and is usually more economical than two separate jobs.
Owners, landlords and timing
66% of households own their home and 20% rent privately (averages 63% and 19%), so owners weighing a respray against replacement and landlords who care most about speed are both well represented among the 8,976 households; a typical job takes 1 to 2 days either way.

How a Kolorbond uPVC Respray Works
uPVC is smooth and non-porous, so ordinary paint has little to grip and soon peels; a proper respray uses coatings made for uPVC, applied in a set order:
- Survey: frames checked for soundness
- Deep clean to remove chalking
- Specialist uPVC adhesion primer
- Two Kolorbond-certified topcoats, HVLP-sprayed
- Joint inspection, then written guarantee
Glass, seals, brickwork and handles are masked throughout, and we use Kolorbond-certified coatings made to bond to uPVC, which is what allows us to give a 10-year written guarantee on uPVC; a professionally applied coating lasts 10 years or more in normal conditions, and our article on how long uPVC spray painting lasts in Yorkshire weather explains what affects that.
Respray or replace?
Replacing every uPVC window and door on a house typically costs £8,000 to £15,000 and counts as controlled work under the Building Regulations, whereas a respray at £2,000 to £5,500 leaves the existing double glazing, seals and hinges untouched; replacement is still the right call if frames are warped or cracked or the sealed glass has failed, and we will tell you so at the survey; see our comparison of uPVC spraying and window replacement costs.
Choosing a colour in Cleckheaton
With a mix of 26% pre-1919 and 33% post-1973 properties among the 9,520 here, there is no single house style to design around, which is one reason anthracite grey (RAL 7016) is so widely chosen: it suits red brick, buff brick, stone and render alike, with sage and darker greens, cream and black the other common choices, and our guide to the colours uPVC can be sprayed explains the options.
A uPVC conservatory can be resprayed on its own or with the house (read what spraying a uPVC conservatory involves), and if it is only the front door you want to change, see front door spraying in Cleckheaton.

What Customers Say About Our UPVC respray Work
“We used ColourHaus to spray our white uPVC windows graphite. The finished result was amazing and transformed our house for a fraction of the cost of replacement.”
“Excellent service. I had two outside uPVC doors and a garage door sprayed - about 20 years old and tatty, they now look amazing. Very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable.”
“Had new anthracite sliding doors fitted after major construction work, and Matt sprayed our old white uPVC windows to match perfectly. A massive saving on having new ones fitted.”
