Kitchen sink repair in Ford without replacing anything

Repairs are matched to the original finish, so you don’t need replacement parts. Doors with a large area of lifted vinyl usually need re-wrapping or replacing; we fix chips, dents and local damage. Typical jobs include damage from fitting or moving appliances and chipped door and drawer edges, on gloss and matt cupboard doors, composite sinks and vinyl-wrapped doors.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and wipe door edges dry.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. We fill chips and rebuild edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze or door.
  5. Finally we polish or seal it.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ford use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Ford questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you cover the whole of West Sussex?

We work UK-wide, so Ford is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you work in Ford?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ford for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
