Melby questions

What areas do you cover?

All of the Shetland Islands, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

uPVC repair in Melby, done in place

Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Common call-outs are for scratches from ladders and furniture and chips and dents, in conservatory frames, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and doors & door panels.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

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 work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the frame or panel is cleaned.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Melby. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire window, door or sill

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.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
