UPVC repair for Longniddry homes

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, 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. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

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

How we handle uPVC repair in Longniddry

We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our technicians work on doors & door panels, white uPVC and conservatory frames, and common reasons people contact us are chips and dents and scratches from ladders and furniture.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Common questions in Longniddry

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you work in Longniddry?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How much does uPVC repair cost in Longniddry?

Repair or replace in Longniddry?

Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Take a look at our prices page.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Longniddry

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Longniddry use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Longniddry

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

The things customers generally mention when they call include:

  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents
  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
