Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes.

The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Capenhurst questions
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover the whole of Cheshire West and Chester?
The whole UK, including all of Cheshire West and Chester. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Honest limits
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
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Capenhurst, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
