If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace in Drylaw?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Do you need uPVC repair in Drylaw?
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.
Look out for any of the following:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Drylaw questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Drylaw?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
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 price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
