Questions from Gilmerton
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?
Everywhere in the UK, Gilmerton included. Travel is included in the price.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlord and trade work in Gilmerton

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace in Gilmerton?
A new window, door 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. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gilmerton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
