uPVC repair in Drumlithie without replacing anything
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. If you are dealing with holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
Signs you need uPVC repair in Drumlithie
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work

- We start by cleaning the frame.

- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.

Advice
Questions from Drumlithie
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Repair or replace in Drumlithie?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What uPVC repair costs

- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Drumlithie. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
