Kitchen sink repair near Dallington

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dallington

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

About our kitchen sink repair in Dallington

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it generally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. If you are dealing with damage from fitting or moving appliances and chipped door and drawer edges, we can generally put it right.

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

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

FAQs for Dallington

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you repair a chipped Belfast sink?

Yes. Chips to the rim, apron and around the waste are common repairs.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across East Sussex.

Is there any odour?

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

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 you cover the whole of East Sussex?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Dallington. Prices don’t change with location.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Dallington. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the whole sink or cupboard door
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole sink or cupboard door, we can give you a fixed quote.

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
