uPVC repair in Clestrain without replacing anything

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Whether it’s damage during building work and chips and dents, we can usually put it right, on doors & door panels, window frames & sills and conservatory frames alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Do you need uPVC repair in Clestrain?

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.

  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents
  • Burns on sills

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Clestrain. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Clestrain, and we will reply with a fixed price.
