About our kitchen sink repair in Bocking

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We’re often asked to fix dents and scuffs on cabinets and chips in ceramic sinks, across cabinet ends & plinths, vinyl-wrapped doors and composite sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bocking. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

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.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Repairing versus replacing in Bocking

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Common questions in Bocking

What does kitchen sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you fix kitchen doors?

Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you cover the whole of Essex?

All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
