How we handle uPVC repair in Sullom
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We are often asked to fix burns on sills and damage during building work, on conservatory frames, doors & door panels and white uPVC.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Shetland Islands. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
If you’re in Sullom and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Sullom
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
- White uPVC
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Your questions about uPVC repair in Sullom
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
