For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in South Lanarkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Landmarks near Lanark

Should you replace it?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Lanark get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Questions from Lanark
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.

Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
