FAQs for Port Ellen
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Argyll and Bute. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Port Ellen
- White uPVC

What affects the price in Port Ellen
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire window, door or sill
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Port Ellen, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Port Ellen
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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 regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Repairing versus replacing in Port Ellen
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Work done at your home or business
