Repair or replace in Portlethen Village?

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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What uPVC repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole window, door or sill, we can price the job without visiting.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Questions from Portlethen Village

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you repair coloured uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Do you need uPVC repair in Portlethen Village?

uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.

Common reasons people in Portlethen Village contact us are:

  • Burns on sills
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Damage during building work

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
