  3. We shape the repair to match the original.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Advice

How we handle kitchen sink repair in Farringdon

We repair the damage and match the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl normally need re-wrapping or replacing; we repair chips and dents. If you are dealing with chips in ceramic sinks and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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.

Common problems we fix in Farringdon

Ceramic sinks chip when pans and crockery are dropped, while doors take knocks from bins, chairs and hoovers.

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about kitchen sink repair in Farringdon

Can a chipped butler sink be fixed?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What does kitchen sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Should you replace it?

A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. Repairing it keeps your kitchen as it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, 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 us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place

What kitchen sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole sink or cupboard door
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, 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 will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Farringdon

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
