Kitchen sink repair near Acol

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Acol

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Whether it’s dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges, we can usually put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Landlord and trade work in Acol

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you cover Acol?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Acol for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
