What affects the price in Craigour
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How we handle uPVC repair in Craigour
The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Common call-outs are for burns on sills and holes from removed fittings and alarms, across doors & door panels, window frames & sills and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Craigour and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Craigour questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Craigour?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Signs you need uPVC repair in Craigour
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
