Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Norseman
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Norseman?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across the Orkney Islands.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What else we do in Norseman
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 won’t 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 normally cheaper.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
When to call us in Norseman
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage during building work
- Chips and dents
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What preparation is included
