Kitchen sink repair at your home in Elswick
Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so the kitchen stays as it is. We regularly repair composite sinks, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and cabinet ends & plinths, and people most often call us about dents and scuffs on cabinets and chips in ceramic sinks.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What else we do in Elswick
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elswick as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Common questions in Elswick
Do you come to Elswick?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Elswick from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire sink or cupboard door and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair cupboard doors?
Yes. We repair chips, dents and scuffs on gloss, matt and wood-effect doors.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Before booking anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
