Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
uPVC repair in Cathcart, done in place
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. If you’re dealing with scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Glasgow and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square

Materials we work on in Cathcart
- White uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Conservatory frames
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- No need to remove anything
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Same prices wherever you are

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we are called out for in Cathcart
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
- What prep work is covered
