Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Tiger Bay
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders, tools and building work scratch and chip it, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Look out for these signs:
- Burns on sills
- Damage during building work
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Scratches from ladders and furniture

Tiger Bay: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you match woodgrain uPVC?
Yes. Colour and grain are matched by hand.
Can a burnt window sill be fixed?
Yes. We fill and refinish the burnt area to match.
What affects the price in Tiger Bay
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CF10 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Conservatory frames
- Window frames & sills
- White uPVC
- Doors & door panels
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
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 to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What else we do in Tiger Bay
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tiger Bay as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Tiger Bay, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
