Kitchen sink repair in Abbotswood

Kitchen sink repair in Abbotswood, done in place

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We are often asked to fix chipped door and drawer edges and damage from fitting or moving appliances, on gloss and matt cupboard doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What kitchen sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Abbotswood

A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. A repair leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Landlord and trade work in Abbotswood

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
