About our uPVC repair in Gilmorton
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Whether it’s holes from removed fittings and alarms and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can help, on conservatory frames, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and window frames & sills alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gilmorton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
