Collin questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dumfries and Galloway.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you fix kitchen doors?
Yes. Chips, dents and scuffs are repaired on most door finishes.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How we handle kitchen sink repair in Collin
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. We regularly repair composite sinks, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What happens on the day
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, including clearing up.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- We shape the repair to match the original.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- We polish or seal the repair.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What kitchen sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Collin. The price depends on:

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
