Repairing versus replacing in Bucksburn
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Bucksburn
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Aberdeen. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you work in Bucksburn?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bucksburn and the rest of Aberdeen. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What we are called out for in Bucksburn
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Damage during building work
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
What to look for in a quote
- If travel is included in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
What affects the price in Bucksburn
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- 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. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
