DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
uPVC repair in Plaidy, done in place
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Whether it’s burns on sills and damage during building work, we can usually put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What we are called out for in Plaidy
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.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- When it can be used again
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
If you’re in Plaidy and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
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 keeps the original. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Rooms protected and left tidy

FAQs for Plaidy
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Plaidy?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
