UPVC repair for Scrabster homes

About our uPVC repair in Scrabster

We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Our technicians work on coloured and woodgrain uPVC, white uPVC and conservatory frames, and people most often call us about damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Scrabster and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the frame or panel.
  2. Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
  3. We smooth the repair.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Questions from Scrabster

Do you cover the entire of Highland?

Across the UK, and that includes Scrabster. Prices don’t change with location.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you match woodgrain uPVC?

Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can a burnt window sill be fixed?

Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • White uPVC
  • Doors & door panels
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
  • Window frames & sills
  • Conservatory frames

Should you replace it?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Scrabster. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Scrabster clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Scrabster. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole window, door or sill
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Scrabster get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
