Questions from Boldon Colliery

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Boldon Colliery is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What does kitchen sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Boldon Colliery

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. If you are dealing with chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We sand the repair to the original profile.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Boldon Colliery

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Boldon Colliery. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire sink or cupboard door, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Boldon Colliery

For anyone letting property in or around Boldon Colliery, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Composite sinks
  • Gloss and matt cupboard doors
