UPVC repair near Haroldswick

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

uPVC repair in Haroldswick 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 white uPVC, window frames & sills and doors & door panels, and the jobs we see most are damage during building work and burns on sills.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Shetland Islands. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Doors & door panels
  • White uPVC
  • Conservatory frames
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Window frames & sills

Should you replace it?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Our hiring checklist

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you are in Haroldswick and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
