Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Duns. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Repair or replace in Duns?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in the Scottish Borders and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Duns as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Questions from Duns

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What does uPVC repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
