Common questions in Dunshalt
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Dunshalt is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
uPVC repair at your home in Dunshalt
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Whether it’s chips and dents and burns on sills, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Landlord and trade work in Dunshalt
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Signs you need uPVC repair in Dunshalt
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Window frames & sills
- Doors & door panels
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
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.
