Book uPVC repair in Brae

uPVC repair in Brae, done in place

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We are often asked to fix chips and dents and burns on sills, on conservatory frames, doors & door panels and white uPVC.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Window frames & sills
  • Doors & door panels
  • Conservatory frames
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • White uPVC

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
