How we handle uPVC repair in Uppermill
We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We also do snagging repairs for builders. Our repair technicians work on conservatory frames, window frames & sills and white uPVC, and the jobs we see most are damage during building work and chips and dents.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or scourers.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common problems we fix in Uppermill
uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes mark sills, and removed fittings leave holes.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Chips and dents
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Damage during building work
- Burns on sills

- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We sand the repair smooth.
- The finish is colour matched, woodgrain included.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

- Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole window, door or sill
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Uppermill, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
