Questions from Kennishead
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
uPVC repair in Kennishead, done in place
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Our repair technicians work on conservatory frames, window frames & sills and doors & door panels, and common reasons people get in touch are burns on sills and damage during building work.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we’re called out for in Kennishead
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
Before you book anyone
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kennishead use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
