Filling UPVC holes

Dear All

I have not started on fitting my blinds to the UPVC windows, so was interested to read all the responses about no-more-nails.

However, for holes drilled in UPVC (just out of interest) what would be the best filler to use for unwanted holes?

Can they be filled?

Can you use self tapping screws?

Any hole can be filled - depends on what sort of finish you're looking for (sorry about that). You can get some very fine filler paste for repairing white fibre glass that may do the job. Here's the site http://www.riverswayleisure.co.uk/. Search for Gelcoat Filler. You might be able to get it cheaper elsewhere.

Yes. I put up blinds in my conservatory - they're still up there after seven years so I must have done something right.

Depends how bad & where the extra holes are, just putting a nice screw in COULD look ok.
