Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Dalchalm: your questions answered
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Dalchalm?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Are there extra charges for Dalchalm?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
If you are in Dalchalm and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
