Questions from Shillingford
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What else we do in Shillingford
Signs you need uPVC repair in Shillingford
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Window frames & sills
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shillingford as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of

- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
