We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Typical jobs include scratches from ladders and furniture and chips and dents, in doors & door panels, conservatory frames and window frames & sills.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BS8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Common problems we fix in Failand

- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
