How we handle uPVC repair in Oban

We also do snagging repairs for builders. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Typical jobs include burns on sills and damage during building work, across white uPVC, conservatory frames and doors & door panels.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

Oban questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

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

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

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically 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.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What affects the price in Oban

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Oban. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire window, door or sill
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Oban

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

When to call us in Oban

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

Look out for these signs:

  • Damage during building work
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Burns on sills
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
