About our uPVC repair in Winlaton

The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the frame, woodgrain finishes included. Builders and developers use us for snagging repairs too. Common call-outs are for damage during building work and holes from removed fittings and alarms, on conservatory frames, white uPVC and doors & door panels.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Warm soapy water and a soft cloth are all it needs. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the frame.
  2. We fill scratches, chips and holes.
  3. We sand the repair smooth.
  4. We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
  5. Finally we blend it into the rest of the frame.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Do you need uPVC repair in Winlaton?

uPVC is hard-wearing, but it does get damaged: ladders and building work leave scratches and chips, candles and cigarettes burn sills, and old fittings leave holes.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Burns on sills
  • Damage during building work
  • Chips and dents
  • Scratches from ladders and furniture

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing the frame or sill costs far more, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. A repair leaves the unit in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
