Common questions in Old Craighall
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Old Craighall?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
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 will ask for another photo.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
