DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture

Out Elmstead questions
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
