uPVC repair in Dunston, done in place
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Common call-outs are for damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, across white uPVC, conservatory frames and doors & door panels.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
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’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Common questions in Dunston
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Dunston.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
