uPVC repair at your home in Grindiscol
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and conservatory frames, and common reasons people contact us are chips and dents and damage during building work.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. 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’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Doors & door panels
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
- Conservatory frames
- White uPVC
Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Grindiscol use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Our work in Grindiscol
Grindiscol is in the Shetland Islands. We work in every kind of home, old or new, large or small, as well as offices, shops and holiday lets. Grindiscol is one of 63 towns and villages in the Shetland Islands where we work.

Repairing versus replacing in Grindiscol
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. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Grindiscol. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Grindiscol, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

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

Grindiscol questions
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

The whole UK, including all of the Shetland Islands. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
