We work on conservatory frames, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and doors & door panels, and the jobs we see most are damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
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 we’re called out for in Gatesheath
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work

Gatesheath questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gatesheath. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
