UPVC repair for Cleghorn homes

uPVC repair in Cleghorn, done in place

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you are dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most clients in Cleghorn get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When to call us in Cleghorn

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cleghorn

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
