How we handle kitchen sink repair in Blackhall Colliery
Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We’re often asked to fix dents and scuffs on cabinets and cracks around the waste, on composite sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and gloss and matt cupboard 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 dry the door edges after spills.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Blackhall Colliery. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
