Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Your questions about uPVC repair in Balloch

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover Balloch?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Balloch. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Balloch?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
