Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- White uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Balstonia. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
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.
