Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, 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.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Kitchen sink repair at your home in Carlton

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 generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We work on ceramic Belfast & butler sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and gloss and matt cupboard doors, and the jobs we see most are chips in ceramic sinks and dents and scuffs on cabinets.

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.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

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

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  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. The repair is polished or sealed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Carlton questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you fix kitchen doors?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Suffolk.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
