About our uPVC repair in Columbia
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We are frequently asked to fix scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work, on window frames & sills, conservatory frames and white uPVC.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Columbia and across Sunderland. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Columbia as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
