Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Window frames & sills
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What we are called out for in Gunnista
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Common reasons people in Gunnista contact us are:
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Aftercare advice
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Gunnista: your questions answered
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
