How we handle uPVC repair in West Mains
Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We’re frequently asked to fix chips and dents and holes from removed fittings and alarms, in window frames & sills, conservatory frames and coloured and woodgrain uPVC.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Should you replace it?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and new uPVC may not match the weathered frames around it. Repairing the damage keeps the original. Our uPVC repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Questions from West Mains
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What uPVC repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to West Mains. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the window, door or sill, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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 tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
