uPVC repair in Rhyd-y-car without replacing anything
The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We regularly repair white uPVC, conservatory frames and window frames & sills, and the jobs we see most are burns on sills and chips and dents.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

What we’re called out for in Rhyd-y-car
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
What to look for in a quote

Landlord and trade work in Rhyd-y-car
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Repairing versus replacing in Rhyd-y-car
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in Rhyd-y-car
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
