uPVC repair in Sheffield, done in place
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We’re often asked to fix chips and dents and damage during building work, on doors & door panels, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Don’t use solvents or scourers.
Common problems we fix in Sheffield
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Repairing versus replacing in Sheffield
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Other services in Sheffield
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
