03 · Repairs & mastic

Made good.
Not covered up.

Chips, dents, scratches and burns filled, colour-matched and blended back into the surface — so the damage disappears instead of turning into a patch. Plus mastic and sealant renewed where it’s perished or pulled away.

01 What’s covered

One damaged panel shouldn’t mean a whole new unit.

Repair beats
replace.

A scratched door or a chipped worktop usually gets quoted as a replacement, because that’s easier for the supplier. Filled, matched and blended properly, most damage simply stops existing.

  • uPVC and composite door damage
  • Window frame scratches and dents
  • Worktop chips, burns and joints
  • Sill, trim and threshold repairs
  • Cill end caps and corner joints
  • Delivery and fitting damage
  • Snagging lists for new builds
  • Handover make-good for developers
02 Mastic & sealant

The joint nobody notices until it fails.

Sealed properly,
first time.

Perished mastic lets water behind the frame, and that’s where the expensive problems start. Old sealant cut out, joints cleaned back, new bead applied straight and tooled to a clean line.

  • Window and door perimeter sealing
  • Failed or perished mastic replaced
  • Expansion and movement joints
  • Internal wet-area sealing
  • Curtain walling and cladding joints
  • Fire-rated and specialist sealants
  • Cut-out and full renewal
  • Commercial and new-build packages
04 Common questions

The things people ask before they ring.

Asked
and answered.

Will the repair be visible?

Done properly, no. The filler is shaped back to the original profile and the colour is mixed on site against the surface next to it, then feathered out so there’s no hard edge. On a textured or woodgrain finish the grain is worked back in as well. We look at it with you in daylight before we leave — that’s the honest test.

Is repairing actually cheaper than replacing?

Almost always, particularly on doors and worktops where the whole unit would otherwise be swapped for the sake of one damaged area. It also avoids the lead time and the disruption of a fitting. If we think a repair isn’t the right answer, we’ll say so rather than take the job.

How long does a repair take?

Most single repairs are an hour or two rather than a day. A snagging list across a plot or a building takes longer, but it’s usually still one visit. We’ll tell you the timing when we price it.

Why does mastic need replacing at all?

Sealant hardens and shrinks with age and UV, then pulls away from the frame or the brick. Once there’s a gap, water gets behind the frame — and the damage that causes costs far more to put right than the sealant did. Perished mastic is worth dealing with early.

Can you match a colour you haven’t seen?

Yes. Matching is done on site against the actual surface rather than from a code, because frames fade over time and rarely sit exactly where the original colour started. If you know the RAL or BS reference it’s a useful starting point, but it isn’t essential.

Do you take on snagging lists?

Regularly — it’s a good part of what we do. Builders and developers send a list across a plot or a whole site and we work through it in one visit. Send photographs and we’ll price the lot rather than item by item.

05 How it works

Usually an hour or two, not a day.

Send a photo.
Get a price.

Photograph it

Close up and in daylight if you can. Damage is easier to price from a clear picture than a description.

Fill & shape

Damage cut back, filled and rebuilt to the original profile so the repair follows the line of the frame.

Match & blend

Colour mixed on site against the existing surface, then feathered out so there’s no hard edge.

Check it over

We look at it with you in daylight. If you can still find it, it isn’t finished.
