10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Common questions in Cowcaddens

Is it messy?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Glasgow.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you work in Cowcaddens?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Cowcaddens and the rest of Glasgow. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What affects the price in Cowcaddens

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use 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 without visiting.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairing versus replacing in Cowcaddens

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
