Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
uPVC repair in Riccarton without replacing anything
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. If you are dealing with burns on sills and scratches from ladders and furniture, we can generally put it right, on white uPVC, window frames & sills and doors & door panels alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

FAQs for Riccarton
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are there extra charges for Riccarton?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What affects the price in Riccarton
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add 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
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What we are called out for in Riccarton
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Burns on sills
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms

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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
