Kitchen sink repair in Cann Common

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cann Common use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How we handle kitchen sink repair in Cann Common

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl generally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Whether it’s cracks around the waste and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can generally put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Cann Common

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

We cover the entire UK, including Cann Common and the rest of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you fix kitchen doors?

Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

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. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Cann Common

Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cann Common. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

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

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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

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 to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
