uPVC repair in Bigton, done in place
We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We are frequently asked to fix holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work, in conservatory frames, doors & door panels and white uPVC.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

When to call us in Bigton
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Look out for these signs:
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can

FAQs for Bigton
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover the entire of the Shetland Islands?
We cover the entire UK, including Bigton and the rest of the Shetland Islands. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
