About our uPVC repair in Galltair
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. If you’re dealing with damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can typically put it right, on white uPVC, conservatory frames and window frames & sills alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
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 photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Galltair
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Galltair as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Do you need uPVC repair in Galltair?
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
Comparing quotes
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not 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
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
