About our uPVC repair in Bowness-on-Solway
The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Whether it’s chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can typically put it right, on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, conservatory frames and doors & door panels alike.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bowness-on-Solway. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
