How we handle uPVC repair in Hemerdon
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on window frames & sills, white uPVC and doors & door panels, and people most frequently call us about chips and dents and burns on sills.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Common questions in Hemerdon
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
What we’re called out for in Hemerdon
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
Comparing quotes
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.
