Questions from Sighthill
Is it messy?

Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

All of Edinburgh, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
How do I get a price for uPVC repair in Sighthill?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
uPVC repair in Sighthill without replacing anything
We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. We work on white uPVC, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and conservatory frames, and the jobs we see most are burns on sills and holes from removed fittings and alarms.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What else we do in Sighthill
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Edinburgh and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What affects the price in Sighthill
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Common problems we fix in Sighthill
uPVC is tough but not indestructible: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
Before you book anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
- Doors & door panels
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair leaves the unit in place. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Sighthill clients choose us

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
