Kitchen sink repair in Checkendon, done in place
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. Common call-outs are for chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances, in composite sinks, cabinet ends & plinths and vinyl-wrapped doors.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

FAQs for Checkendon
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Checkendon and the rest of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When we would advise against a repair
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 before you book.
Materials we repair
