Common problems we fix in Gillock
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
- Chips and dents
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
