Kitchen sink repair in Bigton

Kitchen sink repair in Bigton without replacing anything

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Typical jobs include chipped door and drawer edges and damage from fitting or moving appliances, on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and vinyl-wrapped doors.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you are in Bigton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.
