Respray Your uPVC Instead of Replacing It
Yes, the uPVC windows, doors, conservatory frames, fascias and soffits on a Leeming Bar 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, 42 miles (about 57 minutes by road) from Leeming Bar. Of the 3,130 properties around Leeming Bar centre, 49% were built from 1973 onwards and 18% before 1919, which shapes the likely condition of the frames and the colours that suit them.

When the homes were built
When homes in Leeming Bar were built, and what that means for the frames
Around Leeming Bar centre, the Valuation Office Agency counts 3,130 properties: 18% built before 1919, 3% between the wars, 30% from 1945 to 1972, 24% from 1973 to 1999 and 26% since 2000. The standout figure is the 26% (about 800 properties) built since 2000, well above the 17% average. Most of those 800 homes had white uPVC fitted from new, so a respray there is usually about changing the colour rather than rescuing tired plastic. If your home is one of them and an installer's or developer's window warranty is still running, check its terms before any coating work; we can give you the product details. The 30% built from 1945 to 1972 is also above the 26% average: about 950 post-war homes, most of them now on their second set of windows.
In total 49% of properties here, about 1,540, were built from 1973 onwards when uPVC was the usual window, above the 36% average for the towns we cover, while 21% predate 1939. Many of those 1,540 homes have frames that have only ever been white, and a respray changes that for far less than replacement windows.
Types of home in Leeming Bar, and a worked price
Of the 2,717 households counted around Leeming Bar centre in the 2021 Census, 49% live in detached houses, 35% in semi-detached, 12% in terraced houses and 4% in flats. The largest group is detached houses, about 1,330 households or 49% (average 20%), and at our published rates a detached house with ten windows and two doors would come to roughly £1,200 to £2,200 before fascias, soffits or a conservatory, with the exact price set after we check frame sizes, condition and access.
Detached and semi-detached houses together account for 84% of households, about 2,290 (average 58%), and houses like these tend to have more elevations, longer runs of fascia and soffit, and often a conservatory or porch. For those 2,290 homes, the whole-house package of £2,000 to £5,500 on our service page is a more realistic guide than a per-window price.
About 2,600 households here (96%) 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
23% of households around Leeming Bar centre rent privately (about 630), above the 19% average, so landlords own a fair share of the homes here. With 65% owner-occupied as well, the practical questions are how a respray compares with new windows and whether it fits between lets: it is outside work that usually finishes in 1 to 2 days, so tenants can stay put.

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 Leeming Bar
On the 49% of properties here built since 1973 (about 1,540), the usual change is from white to a darker modern frame such as anthracite grey (RAL 7016), black (RAL 9005) or a deep green, so read why anthracite grey suits so many Yorkshire houses before choosing and see the full range of colours uPVC can be sprayed.
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 Leeming Bar.
