Do you cover Davidson's Mains?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Davidson's Mains. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What we can’t put right

- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
