Advice
How we handle uPVC repair in Tostock
The damage is filled and refinished to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Common call-outs are for burns on sills and holes from removed fittings and alarms, in coloured and woodgrain uPVC, doors & door panels and white uPVC.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
