DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kitchen sink repair at your home in Fettercairn
If the vinyl wrap has lifted across a door, it normally needs re-wrapping; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you do not need replacement parts. We work on gloss and matt cupboard doors, ceramic Belfast & butler sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks around the waste and damage from fitting or moving appliances.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new sink or door can mean disturbing the worktop, cabinets and plumbing, or hunting for a door that’s no longer made. A repair keeps your kitchen as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Questions from Fettercairn
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are you accredited?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
