About our uPVC repair in Widewall
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage to match the frame, woodgrain finishes included. We work on window frames & sills, white uPVC and coloured and woodgrain uPVC, and the jobs we see most are burns on sills and damage during building work.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What we’re called out for in Widewall
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.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Holes from removed fittings and alarms
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture
- Chips and dents
Questions to ask before booking
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who turns up on the day
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the frame.
- Scratches, chips and holes are filled.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the frame or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
