About our kitchen sink repair in Backbower

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Whether it’s chipped door and drawer edges and dents and scuffs on cabinets, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Backbower and across Tameside. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we’re called out for in Backbower

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

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Cracks around the waste
  • Dents and scuffs on cabinets
  • Damage from fitting or moving appliances
  • Chipped door and drawer edges

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Backbower

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it 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. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Everything repaired in place

Read our prices page.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Backbower, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How we price kitchen sink repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Backbower and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
