Repairing versus replacing in Aberlour
Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Kitchen sink repair in Aberlour, done in place
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. We regularly repair cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and people most often call us about cracks around the waste and chipped door and drawer edges.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

Common questions in Aberlour
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?
Yes. We frequently repair chips on the rim, front and around the waste.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

- Sinks cracked through the base
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
