How we handle uPVC repair in Blackford
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Our technicians work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, white uPVC and conservatory frames, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Blackford. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Blackford, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
- Window frames & sills
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Questions from Blackford

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Edinburgh.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Blackford?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Repair or replace in Blackford?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
