Kitchen sink repair at your home in Fords Farm

We repair the damage and match 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 repair chips and dents. Common call-outs are for chips in ceramic sinks and chipped door and drawer edges, on cabinet ends & plinths, composite sinks and ceramic Belfast & butler sinks.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Use a sink mat or bowl for heavy pans, and dry the door edges after spills.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and prepared.
  2. Next we fill the chips and rebuild any edges.
  3. The repair is sanded to the original profile.
  4. The colour is matched to the sink or door finish.
  5. We polish or seal the repair.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
