Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
For a price in Mintlaw, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Mintlaw: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Mintlaw and the rest of Aberdeenshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Mintlaw?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are there extra charges for Mintlaw?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Honest limits
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
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
