  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

uPVC repair in Lochboisdale, done in place

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We regularly repair white uPVC, doors & door panels and window frames & sills, and the jobs we see most are holes from removed fittings and alarms and burns on sills.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common questions in Lochboisdale

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Lochboisdale?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Why repair rather than replace?

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 keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. 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.

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Conservatory frames
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • White uPVC
  • Window frames & sills
  • Doors & door panels

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
