Cottingham questions
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?
Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Cottingham.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What affects the price in Cottingham
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cottingham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire sink or cupboard door
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips are filled and edges rebuilt.
- We sand the repair to the original profile.
- The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
- The repair is polished or sealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northamptonshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
