Buckstone questions
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work in Buckstone?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Buckstone from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?
The whole UK, including all of Edinburgh. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Buckstone, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- White uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Conservatory frames
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Buckstone. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
