DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Questions from Gunn

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Gunn?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Gunn and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your EX32 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
