Common questions in Burntisland
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
uPVC repair in Burntisland, done in place
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Our repair technicians work on doors & door panels, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and the jobs we see most are damage during building work and chips and dents.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
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.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- 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
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we are called out for in Burntisland
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
Before booking anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Doors & door panels
