How we handle uPVC repair in Gateshead
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our technicians work on conservatory frames, white uPVC and window frames & sills, and common reasons people get in touch are damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.
Questions from Gateshead
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you cover Gateshead?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Gateshead. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need uPVC repair in Gateshead?
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
