Kitchen sink repair for Bicknacre homes

Landlord and trade work in Bicknacre

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Kitchen sink repair in Bicknacre without replacing anything

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically 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 cabinet ends & plinths, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and composite sinks, and the jobs we see most are damage from fitting or moving appliances and chipped door and drawer edges.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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 generally cheaper.

When to call us in Bicknacre

Ceramic sinks chip when pans and crockery are dropped, and cupboard doors get knocked by chairs, bins and vacuum cleaners.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

How we price kitchen sink repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Bicknacre. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

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.

Quotes from your photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole sink or cupboard door
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  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
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
