Kitchen sink repair for Clay Cross homes

About our kitchen sink repair in Clay Cross

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If you’re dealing with damage from fitting or moving appliances and chips in ceramic sinks, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

When we’d 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 booking.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clay Cross as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

Clay Cross questions

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you fix kitchen doors?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
