uPVC repair in Craig's End, done in place

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Our technicians work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, conservatory frames and white uPVC, and common reasons people contact us are damage during building work and scratches from ladders and furniture.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repairing versus replacing in Craig's End

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. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One price list for the whole UK

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

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

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Craig's End. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Craig's End. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Questions from Craig's End

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Are there extra charges for Craig's End?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
