How we price uPVC repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you’re in Muirhead and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Questions from Muirhead

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you cover the entire of Dundee?

Across the UK, and that includes Muirhead. Prices do not change with location.

Do you cover Muirhead?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Muirhead and the rest of Dundee. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry

Landlord and trade work in Muirhead

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dundee and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Do you need uPVC repair in Muirhead?

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips and dents
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Damage during building work
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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