uPVC repair in Gloweth without replacing anything
We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on window frames & sills, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and the jobs we see most are damage during building work and scratches from ladders and furniture.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repairing versus replacing in Gloweth
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Gloweth: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What affects the price in Gloweth
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Gloweth
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Gloweth, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Common problems we fix in Gloweth
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Look out for these signs:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
