About our kitchen sink repair in Bongate

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. If you are dealing with dents and scuffs on cabinets and chipped door and drawer edges, we can normally put it right, on vinyl-wrapped doors, cabinet ends & plinths and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Bongate?

Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that is no longer made. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

  • Chipped door and drawer edges
  • Cracks around the waste

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What kitchen sink repair costs

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the sink or cupboard door, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
