Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
uPVC repair in Shirehampton without replacing anything
The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Whether it’s holes from removed fittings and alarms and chips and dents, we can usually put it right, on white uPVC, doors & door panels and window frames & sills alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire window, door or sill, we can price the job.

When to call us in Shirehampton
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and old fittings leave holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
What affects the price in Shirehampton
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
