Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Dumfries and Galloway.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Kippford. Prices do not change with location.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

uPVC repair in Kippford, done in place

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We work on window frames & sills, doors & door panels and white uPVC, and people most frequently call us about scratches from ladders and furniture and burns on sills.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

How we price uPVC repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kippford. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Kippford

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Kippford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Do you need uPVC repair in Kippford?

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • How to look after the finish
