How we handle uPVC repair in Glithno
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. If you’re dealing with scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can normally put it right, on window frames & sills, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and conservatory frames alike.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

- Damage during building work
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Glithno: your questions answered
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Repair or replace in Glithno?
A new window, door 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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
