For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kilmun as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we handle uPVC repair in Kilmun
We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Common call-outs are for chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms, on doors & door panels, white uPVC and conservatory frames.
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?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Repairing versus replacing in Kilmun
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Questions from Kilmun
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Kilmun. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
