FAQs for Tingwall
Are there extra charges for Tingwall?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you cover the entire of the Orkney Islands?
All of the Orkney Islands, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t 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
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- White uPVC
- Conservatory frames
- Doors & door panels
- Coloured and woodgrain uPVC
- Window frames & sills
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Tingwall. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Tingwall. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice

- Burns on sills
