Kitchen sink repair in Dowlais Top, done in place

If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we repair chips and dents. We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Whether it’s cracks around the waste and chipped door and drawer edges, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. A sink mat protects against dropped pans, and wipe door edges dry.

Landlord and trade work in Dowlais Top

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How the visit works

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

  1. We start by preparing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. We colour-match to the sink glaze or door finish.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Doors where the vinyl wrap has lifted across a large area
  • Doors swollen by water
  • Sinks cracked through the base

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
