uPVC window & door repair in Splott, Cardiff
Our technicians come to Splott for scratch, chip, burn and hole repairs to uPVC windows, doors and sills. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Chips and dents
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
About our uPVC repair in Splott
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We regularly repair conservatory frames, coloured and woodgrain uPVC and window frames & sills, and the jobs we see most are holes from removed fittings and alarms and scratches from ladders and furniture.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

How we price uPVC repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Splott. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Questions from Splott
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
How much does uPVC repair cost in Splott?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole window, door or sill and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What areas do you cover?
All of Cardiff, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
