We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We are frequently asked to fix damage during building work and chips and dents, on doors & door panels, window frames & sills and conservatory frames.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Govanhill. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Govanhill and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When to call us in Govanhill
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
- Who turns up on the day
- What aftercare is recommended
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Glasgow and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Common questions in Govanhill
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Govanhill and the rest of Glasgow. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
