Need kitchen sink repair in Albaston?

Kitchen sink repair in Albaston without replacing anything

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We regularly repair ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, composite sinks and cabinet ends & plinths, and people most frequently call us about dents and scuffs on cabinets and chips in ceramic sinks.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How we price kitchen sink repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Albaston. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole sink or cupboard door
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Our hiring checklist

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
  • Doors swollen by water
  • Sinks cracked through the base

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cabinet ends & plinths
  • Composite sinks
  • Ceramic Belfast & butler sinks
  • Vinyl-wrapped doors
  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
