How we handle uPVC repair in Dore
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you’re dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can help, on conservatory frames, window frames & sills and coloured and woodgrain uPVC alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Common questions in Dore
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Dore and the rest of Sheffield. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Repair or replace in Dore?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dore. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
