The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- We fill scratches, chips and holes.
- The repair is sanded smooth.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire window, door or sill, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Whiteabbey. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Whiteabbey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
