Respray Your uPVC Instead of Replacing It
Yes, the uPVC windows, doors, conservatory frames, fascias and soffits on a Rawdon 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, 8 miles (about 19 minutes by road) from Rawdon. Of the 6,770 properties around Rawdon centre, 38% were built from 1973 onwards and 23% before 1919, which shapes the likely condition of the frames and the colours that suit them.

When the homes were built
When homes in Rawdon were built, and what that means for the frames
Around Rawdon centre, the Valuation Office Agency counts 6,770 properties: 23% built before 1919, 19% between the wars, 21% from 1945 to 1972, 19% from 1973 to 1999 and 19% since 2000. The standout figure is the 19% (about 1,310 properties) built since 2000, above the 17% average. Most of those 1,310 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 19% built between the wars is also above the 16% average: about 1,260 interwar homes, many with bay windows that are costly to remake but simple to respray.
38% of properties here (about 2,590) were built from 1973 onwards, close to the 36% average, and 42% (about 2,820) predate 1939, so in Rawdon 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 Rawdon, and a worked price
Of the 6,411 households counted around Rawdon centre in the 2021 Census, 21% live in detached houses, 37% in semi-detached, 27% in terraced houses and 15% in flats. The largest group is semi-detached houses, about 2,400 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 6,411 households, jobs here range from a single front door to a full exterior with roofline and conservatory.
About 5,460 households here (85%) 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
74% of households own their home, about 4,730, above the 63% average, and only 14% rent privately; for those owner-occupiers the comparison that matters is with replacement, which our service page puts at £8,000 to £15,000 for a whole house against £2,000 to £5,500 for a full respray with a 10-year written guarantee.

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 Rawdon
With a mix of 23% pre-1919 and 38% post-1973 properties among the 6,770 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 Rawdon.
