uPVC Repair in Wingates
We travel to Wingates for scratch, chip, burn and hole repairs to uPVC windows, doors and sills. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage during building work
- Scratches from ladders and furniture

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
uPVC repair in Wingates without replacing anything
We also do snagging repairs for builders. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the frame, including woodgrain finishes. We regularly repair white uPVC, conservatory frames and doors & door panels, and people most frequently call us about burns on sills and damage during building work.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Don’t use solvents or scourers.

How we price uPVC repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wingates
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wingates use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
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. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Wingates
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A fixed quote before you book
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
