When to call us in Danderhall

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work

Choosing a repair company

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Danderhall. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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 to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Danderhall: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you come to Danderhall?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Danderhall and the rest of Midlothian. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through 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 price the same day in most cases.

Related advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
