  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Clachan, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Common questions in Clachan

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Clachan. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can give you a fixed quote.
