Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
- White uPVC
- Doors & door panels
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after 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.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Gabalfa, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One visit for most repairs
- Everything repaired in place
See our pricing.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
