Kitchen sink repair at your home in Elmstead Market

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it typically needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. We work on cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors, and the jobs we see most are chipped door and drawer edges and damage from fitting or moving appliances.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Elmstead Market

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elmstead Market use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or finding a matching door that is been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Take a look at our pricing.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

What affects the price in Elmstead Market

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
