Kitchen sink repair in Gainsborough without replacing anything
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. Whether it’s dents and scuffs on cabinets and damage from fitting or moving appliances, we can normally put it right, on gloss and matt cupboard doors, composite sinks and cabinet ends & plinths alike.
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 dry the door edges after spills.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Gainsborough questions
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
