uPVC repair in Gabber without replacing anything
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Repairing versus replacing in Gabber
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
