uPVC repair at your home in Cotness
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our technicians work on doors & door panels, window frames & sills and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and the jobs we see most are chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price

Advice
How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 before booking.
Materials we work on in Cotness
- Window frames & sills

When to call us in Cotness
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Common questions in Cotness
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you cover Cotness?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Cotness and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cotness use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairing versus replacing in Cotness
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
