DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

FAQs for Howden Hall
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Edinburgh. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Are you accredited?
