About our uPVC repair in Downgate
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. If you’re dealing with chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can usually put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

When to call us in Downgate
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips and dents
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Downgate: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Downgate and the rest of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Landlord and trade work in Downgate
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, 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
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Downgate
- Doors & door panels
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC

What affects the price in Downgate
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Downgate. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
