uPVC repair in Dishforth, done in place
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We regularly repair conservatory frames, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and people most often call us about scratches from ladders and furniture and burns on sills.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
