We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is my repair covered?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.

What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Tayport. The price comes down to:

Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
If you are in Tayport and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Tayport
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Typically one visit, start to finish
