UPVC repair for Lochee homes

uPVC repair in Lochee without replacing anything

We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We work on white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and doors & door panels, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from ladders and furniture and burns on sills.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Chips and dents

Honest limits

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

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Lochee. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Lochee, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Lochee: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you come to Lochee?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lochee from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Lochee?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DD2 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Repair or replace in Lochee?

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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
