What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

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

Materials we repair

  • Conservatory frames
  • White uPVC
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Window frames & sills
  • Doors & door panels

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Dunbeath, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunbeath

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Questions from Dunbeath

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you cover Dunbeath?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Dunbeath for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

When to call us in Dunbeath

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
