uPVC repair in Walkerburn, done in place
We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Whether it’s holes from removed fittings and alarms and damage during building work, we can generally put it right, on white uPVC, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walkerburn as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new window, door or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair keeps the original. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Walkerburn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Questions from Walkerburn
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What does uPVC repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
When we would advise against a repair
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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.
