DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What else we do in Dunkirk
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Dunkirk
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Do you cover the entire of Nottingham?
All of Nottingham, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
