We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We are frequently asked to fix holes from removed fittings and alarms and scratches from ladders and furniture, on window frames & sills, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
