Kitchen sink repair near Crabtree

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crabtree use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Kitchen sink repair in Crabtree without replacing anything

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it usually needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Whether it’s damage from fitting or moving appliances and cracks around the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What kitchen sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Crabtree. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Crabtree, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. The repair is sanded 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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
