What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Cardenden

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Cardenden customers choose us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Questions from Cardenden

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.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Cardenden?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do you cover the whole of Fife?

All of Fife, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cardenden. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
