Advice
About our uPVC repair in Saughton
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Our technicians work on conservatory frames, white uPVC and doors & door panels, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from ladders and furniture and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Common questions in Saughton
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you need uPVC repair in Saughton?
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site

What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Saughton. What changes the price is:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
