How we handle uPVC repair in Ardler
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, doors & door panels and white uPVC, and the jobs we see most are scratches from ladders and furniture and burns on sills.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common questions in Ardler
What does uPVC repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Ardler
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairing versus replacing in Ardler
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
