- Burns on sills
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work

uPVC repair in Shieldhall, done in place
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Our technicians work on white uPVC, conservatory frames and window frames & sills, and people most frequently call us about scratches from ladders and furniture and damage during building work.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Shieldhall
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Shieldhall
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Window frames & sills
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in Shieldhall and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Shieldhall: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What areas do you cover?
All of Glasgow, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Shieldhall?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Shieldhall and the rest of Glasgow. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
