About our uPVC repair in Toab
We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Our technicians work on conservatory frames, window frames & sills and white uPVC, and the jobs we see most are scratches from ladders and furniture and burns on sills.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Do not use solvents or scourers.

Toab questions
How much does uPVC repair cost in Toab?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair a burn on a uPVC sill?
Yes. The burn is filled and refinished to match.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Toab is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What we’re called out for in Toab

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Chips and dents
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills
- Scratches from ladders and furniture

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 usually cheaper.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What uPVC repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole window, door or sill
- The material, if you know it
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Toab, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour-matched, woodgrain included.
- The repair is blended into the surface around it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
