The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the frame or panel is cleaned.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- We smooth the repair.
- We colour-match the finish, including woodgrain effects.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What affects the price in West Craigs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire window, door or sill
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
