UPVC repair in Craichie

About our uPVC repair in Craichie

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Our technicians work on window frames & sills, conservatory frames and white uPVC, and the jobs we see most are scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched

What a repair can’t fix

  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Conservatory frames

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

Your questions about uPVC repair in Craichie

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Angus.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
