uPVC repair in Stoer without replacing anything

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Whether it’s damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. The repair is sanded smooth.
  4. The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
  5. The repair is blended into the surface around it.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. A repair keeps the original. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we’re called out for in Stoer

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.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture
  • Holes from removed fittings and alarms
  • Damage during building work

Before booking anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

What uPVC repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Failed or misted double glazing units
  • Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
  • Frames that are warped or out of square

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Stoer

  • Conservatory frames
  • White uPVC
  • Window frames & sills
  • Doors & door panels
  • Coloured and woodgrain uPVC

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

FAQs for Stoer

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you cover Stoer?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Stoer from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
