How we handle kitchen sink repair in Balham

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We’re frequently asked to fix cracks around the waste and chips in ceramic sinks, on cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

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

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Balham

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

Signs you need kitchen sink repair in Balham

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

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Damage from fitting or moving appliances
  • Chipped door and drawer edges
  • Dents and scuffs on cabinets
  • Chips in ceramic sinks

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Balham

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Balham

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
