Our work in Lyness
Lyness is about 13 miles south-west of Kirkwall, in the Orkney Islands. Our work suits any type of property, from flats and terraces to detached houses and new builds, as well as offices, shops and holiday lets. Lyness is one of 51 towns and villages in the Orkney Islands where we work.
All of KW16 is within our area. You will find Lyness on the B9048, so it’s easy for us to reach.

Landlord and trade work in Lyness
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

FAQs for Lyness
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Lyness?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of the Orkney Islands. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
