Our kitchen sink repair service in York

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Our repair technicians work on composite sinks, vinyl-wrapped doors and cabinet ends & plinths, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from fitting or moving appliances and cracks around the waste.

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Landlord and trade work in York

If you manage property in York, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Signs you need kitchen sink repair

Dropped pans chip ceramic sinks, and cupboard doors get knocked by chairs, bins and vacuum cleaners.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Cracks around the waste
  • Chipped door and drawer edges
  • Damage from fitting or moving appliances
  • Chips in ceramic sinks

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for York. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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

York: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of York. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
