Kitchen sink repair in Canonmills without replacing anything

Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl typically need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Whether it’s dents and scuffs on cabinets and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can help, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Canonmills as everywhere else we work. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Landlord and trade work in Canonmills

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Canonmills, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean and prepare the damaged area.
  2. Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. The repair is polished or sealed.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
